Yeah, and then there was the "story" about Defcon shutting down their local con.

I know I'm going to piss some people off here, but:

Its Detroit. An entire city that was wiped out when industry maturity, robots, and industrial engineering radically reduced the number of people required to mass produce automobiles. A place where the greatest hope for the economy is a casino...

Every Canadian I know has a story about a buddy who was trying to cross into Windsor at the bridge downtown, got turned away because they forgot their passport/id/whatever, called from the gas station right there at the base of the bridge to explain that they would be late, and got mugged while on the phone. I've heard that same story from three different people now.

The idea that this place produces hackers who are more on the anti-social side of the spectrum is not the least bit surprising.... That something in the water is widespread poverty. It sucks. Its going to take some real leadership to fix it. I'm not sure Trump is really making the difference up there, but then I don't really follow it closely.
