Let me explain the monotone.

In Michigan, if you go knock on the door of your neighbors, what is the probability that they work in the same industry as you?

In SV, the probability that they work in tech is very very high (99% in my case, the 1% is an old retired engineer).

SV's monotone is a bubble of gigantic proportions. Everyone is in tech. There are no auto-mechanics living nearby (they drive in from 1.5 hours away)
