Post #285,371 by mmoffitt 5/25/07 2:09:32 PM Reply	I get that. And above. But, come on. These homes in the Lakewood/North Long Beach area are stucco homes, built in the 50's or 60's, and are something like 1400 sq ft. WHERE does it makes sense for such an abode to cost > $200,000? bcnu, Mikem It would seem, therefore, that the three human impulses embodied in religion are fear, conceit, and hatred. The purpose of religion, one might say, is to give an air of respectibility to these passions. -- Bertrand Russell

Post #285,393 by Andrew Grygus 5/25/07 6:53:42 PM Reply	It's all about how far out you have to go . . . . . to get the same thing at a significantly lower price. Two decades ago thousands of young couples who just had to have those huge houses with high vaulted ceilings, RVs and all the trimmings built out in Palmdale and Lancaster where they could (almost) afford the property and property taxes. That's 60 miles or more commute to where they worked in Los Angeles. Today with traffic congestion and high gas prices the area would be crumbling into a ghost town if it weren't for the Metrolink line. Service was expanded and improved after the Northridge earthquake and people figured out how to use it. There's still plenty who drive though. 8-1/2 hours for work and lunch, 4 hours of commute, 8 hours of sleep - that leaves 3-1/2 hours a day for breakfast, supper and life.

Post #285,432 by drewk 5/26/07 1:30:17 PM Reply	They do that during the commute* Where do you think road rage came from. * Just realized that could be read as "thinking about their bills during the commute", or as "tossing and turning during the commute". Either one works. === Kip Hawley is still an idiot. === Purveyor of Doc Hope's [link\|http://DocHope.com\|fresh-baked dog biscuits and pet treats]. [link\|http://DocHope.com\|http://DocHope.com]
