I'd agree with your preference of LA if they got rid of one of their major problems: their entire population.
To that end, I shall resume my Earthquake dance.

Hey! Some of us are actually part of that entire population and would prefer to continue to live without major Earthquake dances. Put your pants back on, there's women and children present, and we who have to sleep at night.

Cost of Living in Wellington is about the same as Los Angeles. In other words, not cheap.

Yes and No.
New Zealand has had a lot of growth throughout the country and generally there is a shortage of skilled people in certain occupations in all areas. In a small market like NZ, it is easier to look overseas rather than trying to compete for limited internal sources.
Living in NZ is mostly about the lifestyle and not the money. If money is your major driver then I dont think NZ is for you.
Some thing are expensive in NZ (due to our isolation) and some thing are fairly cheap. When comparing salaries to other country is always inaccurate unless you factor in all the other aspects. (eg I have worked my whole life for public Companies with no hand out from anyone, yet own my own country retreat lifestyle block and a new beach house and no debt). Materialistically I have everything I want or need so money is not a driver for me anymore.
If you a big city person then NZ is quite limited, but if you prefer a smaller quietier City / Town then you will be better off if they are close to the main cities where you get big city salaries for small town costs.
NZ has lot of migrants and generally they come for the lifestyle. Some find the isolation a bit of a challenge because they are so far away from families and friends.
When all said its horse for courses.
The same could probably said about New Zealands West Island (Australia for the geographically challenged)

Well, my resume will be getting submitted with no waste of time. Getting a job in a foreign country is far more important to me that what that job pays, as long as it covers cost of living.

had a login screen come up with the pass word autofilled but not the user name. It's a major site too!

It's the latest security paradigm....strong usernames.

Must be because passwords are so passe?

So is "Password" - but I can probably guess what goes with that one!

I'd try "Username" first!

Berkshire Bank's website does that. I have to type in my username, but the password auto-fills.

For a bank? Wouldn't have thought that.

Well, forgetting a password is reasonably acceptable, but if you can't even remember who you are, I can see why some sites might not want to let you in.

Maybe it thought you were PODESTA, and just filled in "password" for you!

Yes, but it's a derivative of the other movie.
