The Des Moines Register thinks either Apple, whose gay CEO is one of its worst-kept secrets, or gay-friendly Facebook may be scouting locations for a $1.2 billion "Project Edge" data center in Iowa, which protects LGBT employment rights statewide and allows same-sex marriage, or in heterosexual-supremacist Nebraska, which has constitutionally banned gay marriage, civil unions and domestic
