You are probably more correct ... but to me "the effects" of silicon on
"the valley" is what I call Silicon Valley.  I spent most of the 40's
and '50's between San Mateo, Los Altos and Santa Cruz.  There were farms
and orchards everwhere.  Also with a Grandmother born in S.F. in 1892
and her mother born in Sacramento ... I've seen and heard what Calif.
used to be like.   Thats why I'm in Seattle now  :)
