Wow, Lava Java? I've heard the name mentioned (we stole a friend's coupons at work one day last week), but I don't know where it is, nor have I been. How is it?

You're right about Greenville's backwards attitude towards technology. I posted another blog entry about something similar the other day (it focused on blog dinners and lunches being non-existant around here, but it's the same concept), pointing out that the entire South East seems to be lagging in the technology world.

So Mr. MVP, when you going to burn me a copy of all your MSDN stuff? Oh, and got any job openings for a slacker tech guy? :)

Greenville always has had it's good points and bad. One point is that the type of companies around here don't exactly staff large amounts of IT staff. Because of that, the development community is relatively small, making demand for benefits like wi-fi an after-thought. This is also the case with technology. How many places do you know around here that are finally getting their feet wet in .NET 1.1? And this is just as they are getting ready to hang the wet-paint signs on .NET 2.0!
