Texans are proud of their state and rightfully so. More states would follow the Texas Proud attitude but upon review of their own states ...................they realize there really ain't much to be proud of. Now, the Mountain State is my home and I am proud to be a Mountaineer but let me tell you..............the state is suffering for jobs that pay a decent wage. The jobs won't come until the education comes. We are talking about educations that will lend itself to high tech jobs. I ain't talking dishwashers and maid type jobs. You hear me talking? I left WV along about 1980 (when King Coal let me down) and made the trip to the Dallas, Texas area and never looked back. I got busy making silicon wafers and then got into the high purity liquid nitrogen and oxygen business. I worked for years on the Texas Instrument's Campus just off Highway 75 and the 585 expressway around Dallas. I was right there at the Hi-5 every day. Now, I ain't saying I loved the traffic but I did love Texas and the job and the ability to raise my family without being hassled by the man. War-ez
