From Ira C:

Mr. Ciesielksi –

Maybe I'm a bit sensitive here, but you noted the accounting issue brewing at International Rectifier was an “interesting case developing in Silicon Valley”. International Rectifier is located in El Segundo, California (which is near Los Angeles) and audited by the Los Angeles office of PricewaterhouseCoopers. Silicon Valley is typically associated with the San Francisco Bay Area and given that El Segundo is about 350 miles south of Silicon Valley, I'm not certain I understand the connection to the “interesting case developing in Silicon Valley”.

Ira,
You are perfectly correct.

It was a result of my habit of associating all things tech with Silicon Valley, and I think of semiconductors as tech-y.

I have since revised the post to include the more geographically diverse name, "Tech-Land."

And that's "Ciesielski," not "Ciesielksi." Thanks for writing in!
