I actually have to say that you did not make a very convincing argument that YOU WOULD LIKE TO move there.
It actually is quite telling (not by what you say, rather by what you DON'T say) that you think the job market might suck there (by way of saying you don't have a job there) and that the kids are settled into the school and friends where you are.
As t^2 mentions above, truly take tat-boy and MLC out of the equation.
Why WOULD you move there? And answering with "why not" will be stricken from the record... lol
