Grant, I echo your sentiments. I'm a "displaced" Californian, but I'm fortunate to live in Maryland where I was able to vote for marriage equality, among other good things. The results were pretty much the same as my ballot all around, so I'm happy here too. Thanks for sharing, don't worry about that guy, and enjoy the California weather. Steve
