"Hey,Ho where did you go Ohio?" So sang Chrissy Hynde, of the Pretenders, who was originally from Akron, Ohio. Unfortunately with the loss of many industrial jobs to cheap labor overseas, this question pops up a lot. Thankfully, because of new tax incentives and technology Ohio's economy is on the rebound, with industrial output rising. The Wright brothers are probably Ohio's most famous sons and they invented the airplane in their bicycle shop in Dayton. Driving along the Ohio Turnpike I-80/I-90, one can make it all the way to Pennsylvania and along the way stop in Kotobuki, Toledo's finest sushi, right on Monroe Street in the Promenade Shops. For higher education, Ohio has many fine institutions, the most famous of which is probably Kent State. Kent State was the site of Kent State shootings, in which the Ohio National Guard shot 4 college students in 1970, around the time of huge Vietnam War Protests and student uprisings.
