North Carolina growth

I've blogged in the past a couple of times about North Carolina, which has surpassed my home state of New Jersey as the 10th most-populous state in the nation. One was an essay, reprinted from an earlier blog, urging North Carolinians to make sure to consider mass transit it their growth plans. The other was a post about people meeting to discuss the state in the 21st century.
Now comes an article by a California planner, who notes that the amazing growth experienced by North Carolina is very similar to what California experienced after World War II. Seems like more words of wisdom -- and warning -- about a state that can no longer be ignored. As this writer suggests, just ask Barack Obama.
