"The nation's capital has been converted to the Seattle culture of recycling and caring. Guess which city now has a bag tax?"
"Anyone who has ever made the eastward migration from the Pacific Northwest to Washington, DC knows what a psychological challenge it is. Giving up mountains for monuments, coffee for congressmen (and women), microbrews for Michelob, are not even trade-offs. It is not just the quality of life changes that are difficult; nor the transition from stoic, aloof Northwest personality types to the self-promotional East Coast careerists. Rather, it’s leaving behind the culture of recycling and caring for the environment for the gritty, litter-strewn, rundown urban east."
