The Epicenter of Optimism

I am most fortunate to alive inwards the Silicon Valley.  The climate is about perfect except for the potential for an earthquake.  The United States of America Geologic Survey is located inwards the middle of the Valley as well as tracks seismic activeness from all over the world.  (See existent fourth dimension earthquake map)  At some point, this expanse volition accept some other big one.  Right now, however, hundreds of piffling quakes are occurring all over the bay expanse as well as they don't require the shifting of tectonic plates.

Silicon Valley

People amongst indomitable self-confidence inwards a rainbow of colors populate the valley.  We are united past times a finish of "changing the world".  It is non only a cliché but really a mantra.  Apple, Google, Twitter, as well as Intel are exactly a few of the transformative applied scientific discipline companies that were founded here.  It is of import to banking concern complaint that other industries likewise contribute to the culture.  Genentech, the world's origin biotechnology society was founded hither over thirty-five years agone past times a duet of dreamers that envisioned a public of genetically engineered medicines for challenging diseases such every bit diabetes.  That was scientific discipline fiction dorsum as well as hence as well as is reality now.   Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 novel generation of visionaries essay to solve insanely hard problems such every bit encephalon cancer.   (See floor nearly how an viii twelvemonth old's drib dead continues to inspire Stanford researchers)  Other valley entrepreneurs essay to solve our seat out energy problems via novel approaches to renewable sources or via electrical cars such every bit Tesla.  Many to a greater extent than quixotic ideas volition erupt from this fertile basis as well as inspire other ideas inwards nigh as well as distant lands.

Despite the recent economical difficulties, young, middle historic menstruum as well as older people inwards this valley piece of occupation along to search for as well as fifty-fifty need dramatically ameliorate solutions to the most challenging problems of our time.  They covert Les Brown's suggestion:  "Shoot for the moon.  Even if you lot miss, you'll province amidst the stars".  The valley is nearly 25 miles long as well as entirely 3 miles broad but really is the epicenter of optimism.
