aheartfullofspirit asked: I wish I was really from Vermont so that I could give you some Vermont problems. But I do visit every year if I can, and I know one problem is "Having to scout out swimming holes ahead of the group to make sure there's no skinny dippers". Haha, I love Vermont - you guys rock!

Always great to hear from a flatlander or two!

Just be you, Vermont.

We’re guessing that this map, when viewed by anyone with a negative, apathetic, or in-perspective attitude towards sports, is probably a good way to spike your blood pressure. Still, nice to see that as in so many ways, New Hampshire is an island unto itself. (Update: Originally referred to “Vermont” instead of “New Hampshire.” That’s what we get for not checking our map!)

Vermont Problem: Just another of those times when people have no clue which one we are.

Feedback Help on Sustainable Living

As a Vermonter, I know that many of us are all for local and sustainable living. A previous teacher of mine has reached out through facebook with this:

“I’m writing a book about sustainability, and how humanity might shift to a more rational position with respect to nature and the environment. As part of this, I’ve started a blog at http://sustainableus.org/ . I’m looking for a some rational people who would be willing to follow the blog and occassionally offer feedback or thoughts; I think it would help me refine my ideas. I welcome all viewpoints— this is a middle-of-the-road effort. Thanks all…”

I thought that I would share it so that others can also help, the more feedback the better! So if you would all take a look, share your thoughts, or just spread the word that would be great! Thank you!
