    Fairly accurate story on Viaweb: http://goo.gl/OWbpq8 . Except for why YC is in CA. It's because CA seemed better for raising kids.

        @spolsky Definitely. But if that had been a decisive factor we wouldn't have been in MA even half the time.

        @paulg @semil West Side of LA/Beach Cities is even better for kiddos. Public schools are legit here.

        @paulg if Palo Alto is better, why high suicide rate at Palo Alto high school ?

        @vasilipoupkine That is a very important question, and I think I have answers, but tweets are too small for this convo.

        @paulg really curious for your take on it. But my simplest explanation is Palo Alto is no better for kids than any other top suburb in US

        @paulg The media always overlooked our reason for moving since it's more controversial to cite conservative investors http://old.ycombinator.com/ycca.html
