Raleighians? Raleighites? Triangulars? Chapel Hillians? Durhamites? Whatever it is, I think I just officially became one as I had to defend our fair cities over on the NoVA board. So what am I now?

That's an interesting question because I never thought about it regionally and, frankly, never really thought about it locally either.

I read the entire thread where you are defending the Triangle. Thanks for representing!
However, I'd like to challenge you on your dismissive/also ran comment regarding NC State. NC State pumps thousands of Engineering grads out each year and many of them land jobs and careers in the Triangle. NC State doesn't play a "lesser extent" role in the success and growth of the area.

Ah, don't waste your time on the NOVA board. Anybody who thinks NOVA is something to strive for isn't worth your time.

Yeah, I have been posting too much to that thread in the last 5 minutes. I don't know why I check the NOVA board so much. Guess I considered a move to NOVA a few years back and still have a lot of family there and know the area.
