Come on down MN BRAT...and become TX BRAT! ~snort~ I have numerous times through out my life and the want isn't an issue, it, as usual aways boils down to the loss of property and financial recouping.
The TAX incentives via loss of paying them in MN sure is incentive to be close to good people and fun and consider the P&L in doing so however! : D
Oh did I mention the wonderful climate incentives also?
