For instance, most of value in Amazon's comp seems to be granted in years 3 & 4, but it's well known that most people last only 2 years max there.

So today my transition is complete. I went from voting mostly republican and for McCain to voting straight down Democrat this year. Its wild how the world changes.

Why is everyone freaking out? I was told it's just like the flu.

Being from Minnesota, I think it's so funny when people act as if we are some far-left State just because we hadn't voted Republican in a presidential election since Nixon. Never mind that many of our elections are close or that we have elected Republican Senators and governors.
