Gee Mary, by and large Vermonters get the parsiflage when it flies around. New Hampshirites, though... (actually most of them do too, but some of them, oh my!) We had one who was jumping up and down about spending GRANT money on renovating our old RR Station. Thought it was Gov Dean's way of making us provide bathrooms for the folks on I-91. I think it was Take Back Vermont trying to make trouble. Kinda pathetic. Of course Den Farmer, one of the sharpest folks in town, (reads the entire report and can speak intelligently and eloquently on almost any subject therein) was having a wonderful time voting against everything, just for jollies. Luckily I got my tongue working before I had to explain the item where we vote on how much of the budget is to be raised by taxes. And they even reelected me to the budget committee. Hooray for democracy!
