JoB,
You are right, I really hate to leave Seattle – I think most startup entrepreneurs are in the same boat, of course who knows how many will make the same decision I have made. Luckily I don’t have a family to move, just Washington state assets that I will sell. I don’t think there are too many of us compared to most normal salaried people so we probably won’t have any short-term impact.

Personal opinion:
I think it will be tough for Washington State to attract future technology/biotech/etc startup businesses to Washington compared to other states, but this is my personal opinion.
