Spike,
Stop the theorizing. <G> H & M report that since about 1900 the
economy has become high tech enough that they can observe (statistically) the
GT starting to congregate into community -- what do you think this list
represents? LOL
I think I have written on this list that I come from one of those
small towns in southern Missouri -- alright, five miles outside one of those
small towns in southern Missouri. In the early 40s those people started
splitting into two groups. First, those whose daddies had enough to get them
started locally and those that had gone north. Second, those that were too
dumb to move off a thorn.
I knew most of those people from around my home town. With few
exceptions all my friends came north. Our local HS school says that if
compared with HSs nationally we have a much lower percentage that go directly
from HS to college and a higher than the national average percentage that
eventually graduate college.
Typically, we went north, as we had no money we went to work, we
looked at our prospects and said, "this won't do." Then we found a way to
put ourselves through college.
All of which is reported as a statistical trend in H & M.
As to the black, white, east asian and european jewish data in H & M.
My observation is that those that can make it do so. I also seem to notice
that those that are more or less in H & Ms GT group don't worry too much
about race, religion etc. when associating with each other.
