I realize that there are probably many open minded people living in Georgia, and I don't see how my comments could be taken as a slur against them. If racists are the exception to the rule in Georgia now, I gladly stand corrected. Perhaps alot has changed in 18 years, but that would really surprise me. BTW- I'm glad you like your home. I happen to prefer the northwest and will not return to Georgia. We all should be where we would rather be.... Right?
