What happened to all the Wash. members?

[Model 57]

The PNW forum used to be dominated by the Washinton, and Oregon members. Now it seems to have been taken over by the California crowd.
I never thought that California was Pacific Northwest, but guess that's only me.

I don't think there is really any territorial confusion. However, the regioinal choices for posting are somewhat limited in selection. I personally believe there should be one labeled just for California due to the population size of the state, just like there is a region alone for Texas.

Currently, most Californians post in the SW Region. But, that also usually includes Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, maybe even Utah. Those of us from the central and northern regions of California often feel disconnected from So. Cal. so I can see why some are choosing to post in the PNW Region. I guess it just comes down to a personal preference.

Don't worry, we aren't trying to take over the PNW (although many residents in Oregon, Washington, Idaho are former Califorians!). Maybe someone else has a different opinion than me.
