Please no, I like the square footage I get for my rent. Keep all the startups on the bourgie side of the bridge and tunnel.

East Bay (by which I assume the Tri-Valley and LaMoraga+Walnut Creek) always had a massive tech presence - going from Livermore+Sandia+Berkeley Labs to PacBell to PeopleSoft to HPC@Cheveron+PGE to Workday+Veeva today and the Telcos in LaMoraga+Walnut Creek. Most Asian and White techies with families try to buy houses out there hence why you see Palo Alto level housing prices.

If by East Bay you mean Oakland and its denizens, I don't see it happening. Oakland+Berkeley local govt makes SF appear very startup friendly.

I call it the East-east Bay, having lived in Lafayette and Walnut Creek after I left SF proper.

> LaMoraga

I've heard it as LaMorinda - Lafayette, Moraga, & Orinda

[alephnerd]

Your right. I always forget Orinda in that acronym. So much for growing up in the Tri-Valley
