Amen, brother.

Cultural and other amenities can be a significant attractant, but when
it comes right down to it (roof over one's head and food on the table),
the bux matter :-(.  I'm not even going to open the Pandora's Box that
is the discussion of "the arts" in San Antonio, but I *will* say that
lots of people will put up with the high cost of living in certain areas
of the country precisely because of the availability of things that are
considered unnecessary down here.  I wish the powers that be would take
notice...
