I would think so too.  But from the the dialog on this topic on the
rec.garden newsgroup, most Midwestern and Eastern gardeners do not seem
to find Sunset useful.  Could be that ocean currents and mountain ranges
have less effect than in the West.  Or maybe they just don't want to buy
Sunset's books.  -Olin
