California Leads Again

There was a book called "Promised Land" a few years back that posited that California because of its population and huge economy, leads the way on most social revolutions in the US by about twenty years (though sadly not so on Gay Marriage, where New England is leading us out of the Dark Ages strangely enough). So I find it interesting that Jerry Brown has just sent out an email blast noting that President Obama, California, and the car companies have reached a deal whereby the federal government will adopt California's tougher emissions standards as national. Go Cal.
