I read somewhere to beware of the person who appears the same to all of his/her acquaintances- that person is acting.

I have a musician friend in Fairbanks who says that he has always been considered, and considered himself, a political moderate. In Fairbanks, he says, he's considered a bleeding-heart liberal.

Juneau varies. Downtown is famously liberal; not so in the valley, scarcely 10 miles away.
