You ever hear of anyone retiring and going North?

P.S. Gas is presently $.97/gallon in my home town...

The "quality" of life up north is so crappy that Pennsylvania's population - relative to the other states - has actually fallen so much as to cost it congressional representation as a result of the last Census.

"Maybe it's mostly the weather. The North's bracing and wildly variable climate energizes people and encourages planning and careful citizenship. And it's probably better for you, because cold is bad for bugs. Even the post-war wave of air-conditioning hasn't let previously soporific Southern schools, offices and factories overcome the North's paradoxical climatic advantage."Sorry about format but WHAT CLIMATE ADVANTAGE?!?

Actually, I know a lot of people who retire from the New York City area and move to Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Cape Cod. Don't ask me why, but they do.
