Back sometime 1990ish, there was a company in California that tried to
hire me; they flew me down there in an attempt to sell me on the idea.
We went to a Chinese restaurant and I didn't see one Oriental person in
the entire place, including the staff. I can't recall seeing a black
the entire visit.
I didn't take the job. I'm used to Montreal, where you can hear
anything from Polish to Arabic just taking public transit.
I _think_ the community was Santa Cruz, but I could very well have got
that incident mixed up with something else that _did_ happen in Santa
Cruz....
