Evan;

You must be totally dedicated to application development and computers as if you had watched television the past few months I am sure you would have heard that word and seen "the real thing". As I am driving home each day I see a number of women wearing burqas walking with children a few blocks from my house. Sometimes I forget where I am but that is just the San Francisco Bay Area. Fremont, where I work, has the largest Afgan community in the United States.
