I got an email from a friend who used to live in New York and now lives in Seattle:

I’m liking Seattle a lot, people are friendly and courteous here, and
it seems more civilized than most other places I’ve been. People and
drivers don’t get angry, cars let you through, and If someone starts a
conversation with you at the bus stop, it’s not because they want a
dollar from you, it’s because they want to ask about the book you have
in your hand. But the weather’s a whole other matter. Every day is
like the day before – cloudy and rainy.

This exactly confirms my existing attitudes about Seattle. I spend much of my time studying low-probability events, so it’s good to be reminded that sometimes things happen just as expected.
