Oh, come off it!  This is net.singles, not net.politics or net.flame.

Not necessarily PLAN their relationships--but it can have an affect.  From
1981 to 1983 I had a long-distance relationship with a woman who lives in
North Carolina.  One reason we broke up (not the ONLY reason, but one of the
reasons) was that she didn't want to move to the D.C. area and I didn't
want to move to N.C.  One reason (again, not the ONLY reason, but one of the
reasons) she doesn't like D.C. is that anyone living here will undoubtedly
be creamed if we ever have a nuclear war.  She would much prefer to live in
a small town up in the mountains in western N.C.
