Smulkin, i once spent a couple days in Fairmont after a nice little run in with a cop, a one way street, and a little place up there that burned down a few years ago called the Varsity Club :P That was a long time ago though... back in 1989.
I do not miss NOVA at all... even though this area has gotten pretty rough the last couple of years with all the additional military they have been pulling in. It is amazing how a couple of hours south makes such a huge difference in the people..... the people are totally different here.
