IBM isn't cool per se, but new business (especially business with
recognizable names) in Baton Rouge is a good thing, especially when they
agree to develop property. The difference between Atlanta and Baton Rouge
(at least as far as this conversation is concerned) is: choice. I could
leave the job I'm at tomorrow and immediately go somewhere else in a place
like Atlanta. I can't return to Louisiana until I have options, so I think
this is great news.
