<p>Genuine question, did you mean that to be opposite?  That is, it looks like a prowler?<p>I'm looking at photos of the aeromax compared to the PT cruiser and the prowler. It doesn't look anything like a PT cruiser to me, whereas it does have the same body style as a prowler. That being a long front/hood and the cabin towards the rear.<p>Unless there are some design features not noticing.</p>

<p>Not being in California is not a reason you wouldn't know it.<p>If you ever looked up the history of beer in the US or US beer styles you would know it. All the people in the craft beer industry certainly do. Maybe the craft beer drinkers in parts of the country don't know it but Steam/California Common is one of the few original US beer styles. And Anchor was one of the first in the modern craft beer revolution.</p>

<p>Ah that's not true about beer in the US at all.  I also don't particularly like IPAs and have no problem at the local breweries.<p>I'll grant that there was a time when a lot of places were IPA heavy but they basically always had a few other styles.<p>Now every brewery around me is really varied. They might have a couple types of IPAs but all have another 6 or 10 + styles. A sour or two, such as a Belgian or American type. Often a berlinerweisse. Some brown/stout/porter types. Not just oatmeal stout. And even different lager types besides "lager". I see Helles and bock, Vienna, pilsner, everywhere. A rauchbier at one place.<p>I've never really had to look at the IPAs in years.</p>

<p>To sun it up from the NYTimes article posted below, Oklahoma does in fact have legal medical marijuana. In addition it apparently has pretty lax regulations compared to other states on growing. Basically little limit on how many farms are allowed, how much they can grow, etc. And apparently pretty low startup costs (I assume license fees and all that are low).</p>

<p>That's not true. Sure there are a lot of men that want a traditional wife to take care of the house, etc. But I'm not sure they are the majority of men in 2022. Lots of men out there certainly don't want or care if their wife is a homemaker. I, personally, and many people I know aren't particularly interested in that sort of wife and would prefer a "partner" that that has her own professional and personal life and goals equal to us.</p>

<p>I guess saying cathedral is more impressive than saying a guy built a church, albeit big or fancy.<p>Same with the also mentioned Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. I've often seen it referred to as a cathedral but it is just a large church. The actual cathedral in Barcelona is elsewhere. Although now it is deemed a basilica, which I understand is generally just a very special and honored church.</p>

<p>Many of the crops grown in Arizona and southern California such as lettuce and spinach are grown there to supply the country during the winter season.<p>Michigan couldn't replace that during the winter. So it's more of an issue that we would have to decide to only eat vegetables seasonally. No green leafs in winter. Or build vast greenhouses I suppose.</p>

An Analysis of U.S. Census Data from 1850 – 2020"]]></title><description><![CDATA[
<p>Well I'll provide some thoughts and speculation based on my reading.<p>The high migration/immigration rates in Nevada, Arizona, and Utah in the late 1800s is relative. There was such a small amount of people that it was easy to have a large percentage from out of the US.<p>Who was immigrating there? Well one group was the Mormons. Apparently the Mormons were successful early on recruiting in Britain and those people migrated to the US and directly to Utah. Later that flowed over into Nevada and Arizona.<p>Also early on in these western territories, many people were probably going there to mine which may have attracted overseas people directly, not so concerned with green fertile land.<p>Final thought. The people immigrating from Britain and Ireland were looking for land. They probably had little idea what the southwest US was like except they had been told that there was lots of land available. When they got there it was totally different but there was land and water. Also many may have been going to California but stopped on the way for various reasons.<p>Edit: also those states are known for their population in deserts but they do have a lot of non deserts:  forest,grassland, etc. And many early settlers stopped in those areas before geographic forces started the big desert settlements.</p>

<p>I don't understand why people keep saying Lake Mead when referring to water use. Technically the CAP canal come from Lake Havasu. But it's all from the Colorado River.<p>Regardless it's not the primary source of water. The majority of water for the Phoenix area comes from central Arizona rivers. The Salt river project, the Salt river and Verde, etc. You can see the big reservoirs to the east of Phoenix and from groundwater.</p>
