3. Prairie Populism still thrived in SD back then, where it is all but dead today (and dying in MN, IA, and WI )

Was a small-ish revivial in MN last year though. Do you think it'll last?

Hopefully it'll last long enough to build up strength and oust Norm Coleman.

dazzleman, i havent found mass to be nearly as suburban as connecticut.

from what ive seem of mass, i really like it.  ive yet to visit the berkshires though.   im looking forward to going there as soon as possible.

worcester is the really bad part of mass.  it is an industrial wasteland.

Since you appear not to like suburbs, is it the rural areas you like, or the cities?

I agree Worcester is not great, but I think Springfield is worse.

I really like the area around the Berkshires.  Let me know what you think after you visit it.

I would bet that there are parts of Connecticut you'd like if you got a chance to see them.  Maybe next time you go to Massachusetts, you can spend a little time in Connecticut.  If you tell me what you like, I may be able to tell you about some cool places.

Pittsfield is nice.
