Have you been to WF in Austin Texas? What is special about the one in Boston?

Having lived here all my life I can give you a million reasons.But one good example....in the Central Square section of Cambridge (a 10 minute walk from Harvard Square and *very* popular with Harvard types) there's a coffee shop called "The Clear Conscience Cafe" which features signs in the window telling of how well the growers of the coffee beans are paid and how justly and respectfully they're treated.

In short,Boston is a town where many can't even drink a cup of coffee without feeling guilt and shame.

I have been to New England and the NE a few times and even lived there for a while, I know a little about New Englanders. Most of them have a superior attitude that comes off as appearing that they think they are better smarter and just generally superior to the rest of us. They don't have to be rich or Harvard educated to have this superior attitude but I guess it is sort of a filtered down attitude from the rich Harvard types. I have a European born friend who lived in the NE US for 20 years and she has this attitude, but she could have brought it from Europe. Freepers are excluded of course.
