These two emails sum it up nicely:

Email one:

Subject: Ciao, Jonah
Sorry you have such mixed feelings about Seattle. In-room movies – my, what an adventurous weekend you had! Maybe it’s best you not visit here.
Anyway, we sure are glad you’re gone, but you have a nice day.

Email two:

My husband and I lived in Seattle from August 2000 to August 2001 and could not believe how whiny the people out there are. They complain about everything and do absolutely nothing about it. Just one example: they constantly complain about traffic gridlock and how horrible it is out there. But for years and years the politicians have discussed putting in a light rail system and have gotten exactly nowhere with the proposal.
When we were out there, the Wall Street Journal actually ran an article calling Seattle the whiniest city in America. The WSJ argued that Seattle cultivated and encouraged a counter-culture attitude during the early 90s grunge era. Then, when they got exactly what they asked for, culminating in the 1999 WTO riots, they complained about how the degenerates were taking over the city. Hilarious stuff. It’s probably one of the most beautiful cities in America. But I’d never willingly settle down there. The people would drive me nuts.
