”The Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center has become the world's largest industrial center and covers 166 square miles.”

I find that very hard to believe. Can that possibly be true?

Maybe it is the largest “industrial center” measured in area, but what about output, value of products, number of employees, number of companies, etc? “Largest” is vague. Also, what is the definition of “Industrial Center”?

Thank God Californians are fleeing somewhere else than Idaho.

Within the context of this article, the description provided seems fair enough. It obviously refers to surface area (as in: square miles).

Of course, if you think that they might really mean "pre-tax revenues minus deferred depreciation per worker" or such, you are free to do a little investigating for yourself.

Track down leads, contact the author, rough up a few witnesses, go over the crime scene with a fine-toothed comb, etc.

They have come here. We are fortunate that all that built and moved into our little slice of heaven are very conservative. Seems the states population has doubled in the last 10 years.
