          Well if the immigration system was not so bad they likely would never have done it.

            If the issue was only the passport thing, sure. But having people cheat to get into the schools is the bigger problem. And to get into such likely poor schools, too.

                  Now you know, and knowing is half the battle. One has to wonder, though, would then the percentage of female jeans in a region not directly correlate to the chances of earth quakes? Why then are the earthquakes primarily in places with few jeans?

                    Are you saying that places like California have few woman who wear jeans? I'm not sure if that's true or not, just asking.

                      They certainly jeans less than the midwest and northeast ladies.

                        Compared to other parts of the country? I'd say California seems to be at the low end of the jean scale within the US.
