In the end, I never believed HQ2 was ever going to be what Amazon promised, a mini tech hub of some 50k high paying tech jobs. Nor do I believe this promise of New York and DC getting 25k jobs will come to fruition either.

Interesting thoughts on HQ2....
Though, I did hear news reports on ABC and CNN a while back that Austin might be the front runner. I guess that was all speculation.
So you move on Austin.......
