Santa Clara County? :-)

> LA County

Sorry, I guess we're a bit overly fussy out here. That one would be Los Angeles County. (Not that you couldn't call it LA County, just doesn't sound quite right. It's not uncommon to abbreviate the city to LA, but not so much the county.)

Not only irrelevant, but also wrong. We say "LA County" all the time.
Ah, you and _delirium are right, sorry. That's what I get for posting late at night.
Oops, you're right on Santa Clara County. LA County is fairly common though I think.
