Overview Of America 2050
Overview Of America 2050: "America is growing. By 2050, the U.S. population will grow to 430 million, a 40 percent increase over current levels. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, this growth will be concentrated in 8-10 emerging 'mega-regions' -- large, connected networks of metropolitan areas -- in which 70 percent of nation's population growth and 80 percent of its employment growth is expected to occur."
This is a project of the Regional Plan Association in NY, and it's pretty interesting. Check out the maps of our future mega-regions.

Cool map. By-the-way, we're moving to your mega-region in September.
YAY exciting! What are you and LJ doing back in the Bay? Is it short term or permanent?
Oh, sorry! I meant, we're moving to Washington, DC in September. I was thinking the same mega-region as Princeton, but of course you'll be back in SF by then (am i right?). I think we'll be in Cali for part of August, however, if you're around...
now I'm homesick for San Fran -
sigh. I really hope someday we'll move back that way, but not just yet.
Back in sf by July! See you in August...
