about half of the hard core seems to live within a hundred miles of Cambridge
(Massachusetts) or Berkeley (California), although there are significant
contingents in Los Angeles, in the Pacific Northwest, and around Washington
DC. Hackers tend to cluster around large cities, especially university
towns such as the Raleigh-Durham area in North Carolina or Princeton,
New Jersey (this may simply reflect the fact that many are students or
ex-students living near their alma maters). </p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr/><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="communication_style.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="appendixb.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="sex.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Communication Style </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> Sexual Habits</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
