A comment on the Vestas question. The state of Portland schools has nothing to do with how many jobs they have filled. I have been receiving job notices from them since they announced the new HQ. What it boils down to is they are not really hiring anyone other than management and for high end tech positions.

So unless they start really adding to their Portland workforce with entry level positions like customer service we really didn't get much bang for the buck other than bragging rights.
