(Cannery Row is where the Monterey Aquarium is located and it was made famous by Steinbeck's novel of the same name. Sorry if I carry on, but Monterey is one of my favorite CA coastal cities.)
I agree on Monterey, although my favorite place is definitely Carmel by the Sea. Monterey seems more affordable as far as living there is concerned, though.
I'm actually a recent dynamo+LED convert (especially as I ponder a move to Sweden) but the compact size of those along with the brightness makes them attractive as an infrequently used or backup light. I also find myself willing to buy Paul and Phil components, too, in order to support the local folks here in California.
