I used to live there! Does that count? All that domaining was going on right in my own backyard...
Don't feel bad -- I used to have a 'real job' in Carlsbad Ca, occasionally buying domains on my break at work, and I kept noticing a red ferarri with a tag something about "WS".
After working there several years, the day I moved on I learned that the .WS headquarters was LESS THAN 1/2 BLOCK AWAY the whole time, in an office/industrial complex I simply had never gone into.
Luckily I never bought any .ws domains, but it still was an odd geographical coincidence.
