NEVADA,
POST GPF, 32 YEARS

         In true
antiquated fashion, and without much adverse attention to detail, the
great state of Nevada is currently two technological baby steps
behind the rest of the world.  This is based on a national average
and not to be confused with the fact that, though Nevada is a mere
two steps away, other states are lagging by several, while still
others are above the average by three or four.  Based on this
average, and only God knows who is in charge of these directives,
Nevada has a little catching up to do.  For instance, only four
states in all their American glory, still hold on to a state seal.
Nevada’s seal, grand as it is, and golden, embossed with the
words, “The great state of Nevada,” around the outer
edge, is a relic almost as ancient as the state itself, and,
naturally, as relics of that type go, disposing of such a useless
facet is undoubtedly difficult.

The state is
undergoing a dramatic change which, in the overall scheme of things,
will put it on the forefront of modern technological advancement. 
No one can see it just yet, not even the inexplicable individual in
charge of rating each state’s progress who believes, with
conviction, that Nevada will remain a petty two steps away from the
national average for a very long time.  Nonetheless, Nevada’s
progress will advance so dramatically, it will leave every other
state in the proverbial dust.

Nevada, home of
Lake Tahoe and the Great Basin, like many other states, has a
prosperous tourism industry from Las Vegas to Del Gibralla City.  The
capital is Carson City, and is only a few hops away from Reno to the
north, off of US-395.  Reno, at one time was a booming city, cloaked
in the mystery of the night and the bright lights of fortune.  The
Great Power Failures of ’31 destroyed the city and forfeited it
to the land, transforming it into little more than rubble.  In
counterpoint, though it had passed away so quickly, Reno suddenly
became a tourist hot-spot for its ghost town appeal.  The upshot to
the death of Reno was that Del Gibralla City sprang up just to the
east of it off of interstate 80 and was nearly busting at her seams
with people.  The city was massive, like a state all its own, but of
course smaller than that, and it was called the ‘New York of
the Midwest.’
