It's an interesting angle on an important story -- and it therefore pains me that much more that the reporter has made a dunderheaded mistake: It was once known for its orchids... "Growing up here it was all ranches and orchids, I was a cowgirl..." Silicon Valley was known for its orchards, not its orchids. Hopefully they get it corrected; it's an otherwise well-written story on an important issue.
