How crazy would I need to be to move to Detroit?

Good luck! You’ll like Gainsville

If you like the outdoors, and wildlife, you should like Florida. (Here's just a small sample of some of the exotic wildlife you'll find down there, before you even venture into Gatorland or Disneyworld.)

Snakes	Chameleons
Huge Palmetto Bugs	Huge Alligators

Best wishes in your search.

(You might want to do a Google search on Florida sinkholes too...)

Check out www.city-data.com too.

That would be another reason to pray all day. Alachua County shows about 5 sinkhole sites on its 2009 map. Most of it, however, no sinkholes. Still, aquifer draining has a way of worsening it. Ah, if the good Lord wants me to die in a sinkhole I will.

That's the spirit, HTRN!     :-)

(You'll get used to those exotic critters after a while too.   It might take just a bit longer, however, to get used to the daily thunderstorms that come and go every afternoon -- if it's anything like Central Florida there!)     :-)

I found this sentence in the Wikipedia page for Gainesville, Fl:

"Also in 2007, Gainesville was ranked as one of the 'best places to live and play' in the United States by National Geographic Adventure."

Got get it. Let us know how it goes.

Someone else told me about Gran Torino, I’ll have to watch!

Will be glad to salute you across the miles, just because you were so friendly about Detroit. And who knows. I may see a quirk of destiny and end up in Detroit anyhow, after trying for Gainesville. When I end up with a job offer that is viable, sometimes it happens so quick that the previous week I didn’t even know about the place.

I keep on wondering why our geological exploration methods aren’t good enough to suss out most incipient sinkholes. We can find oil thousands of feet underground.
