I work in the healthcare industry. What sector is it that you work in again? Was it accounting or something like that? But yet you are the healthcare expert and know more than Health Grades and Carechex, huh?

And the Forbes rating was for the best places for business (small metros in your case), not overall cities.

Okay Tim, if you say so. It's all very objective...

And, because it doesn't favor Huntington the US News ratings are not objective, right? No way you'd have a vested personal interest in that now, is there?

I agree, let's move on to other things. Nobody can win an argument like this one, and it serves no purpose to keep it going.

Actually this argument was won a long time ago, so it is time to move on. However the thread should stay open if someone wants to compare the 2 fastest developing areas of WV.
