In Chicago and it's far from a smoking crater to come. The university system is great and let's not forget that Ruby on Rails was born here.

  DHH lived in Denmark when he created the first version of Rails. He didn't move to the US until the end of 2005. He was employed by a Chicago-based company, though.

      By "was" I meant "was at the time" (in regards to when Rails was created). Interesting that he left for Spain. I did not know that!

  Let's hope the universities don't shut down, then. That certainly wouldn't bode well for the surging homicide rate.
