> I wonder how many folks in SV grew up in the south

A reasonable number, actually. Hell, Apple is run by southerners (Tim Cook is from Alabama). I happen to work with a number of folks from North Carolina and Virginia.

That's like going to a town meeting in 1630 and saying "ok, everyone who's a witch raise your hand." A few people will admit to being from cities in the south. Nobody is going to admit to being from the rural south.

Not really true; I've got three friends from the rural South here, and one from the farm belt. They don't make any big secret about where they're from.
