According to Peet's.

Today I used my last day before my new job starts at Loudeye to drive around the city some more and get a feel for the highways and 'burbs. I started out by driving to the nearest Peet's Coffee, which turned out to be a bit tricky to get to. By the way, I recently learned that Peet's is a Berkeley-based company, not Seattle as I'd previously thought, and that there are actually only 2 in this city..one in Green Lake and one in Fremont. Anyway, once there I ended up buying a bag of the House Blend, and got a free cup since the woman misunderstood my order. After sitting down, I overhead a conversation between several people debating the merits of Seattle versus Chicago. The former Chicago dweller was adament that out here people are nicer, more laid-back, and less aggressive. The woman concurred, and also mentioned that Seattle sells more sunglasses per capita than any other US city...probably because people get excited when the sun comes out. Although, I must say, I've seen the sun every day since I've been here. I have been warned, however, about the impending "rainy season", which I'm not really looking forward to.
