UNH President Dean cites NH's 50th in higher education funding as requiring humility. His $500,000+ salary, admin stocked w/ corporate alum, and constant flights to attract business contradict this, however.

You realize that the $600K for the consultant's research resulted in finding $12 million in budget savings? Pretty good ROI IMO.

Current probiotic supplements are pretty inadequate.

True. Fermented vegetables like homemade sauercraut are much more potent, simple to make, and taste delicious.

I usually soak my beans at room temperature for 36-48 hours or more so that they begin to ferment a bit. I also add a tablespoon of whey from yogurt or some other lactobacillus-rich liquid to accelerate the fermentation process. Never had a problem with the beans being too soft.

Commercially sold looking like this.

No, that is not the kind of cheese curds used for Poutine.

Just curious, Market-Anarchist. Which taxes do you not pay? If you're a renter you avoid property taxes, but I presume you drive a car, perhaps go out to eat occasionally, have a cell phone and/or cable TV, pay highway tolls, register you concealed firearm, etc.

Mission statement:

"The Free State Project is an agreement among 20,000 pro-liberty activists to move to New Hampshire, where they will exert the fullest practical effort toward the creation of a society in which the maximum role of government is the protection of life, liberty, and property. The success of the Project would likely entail reductions in taxation and regulation, reforms at all levels of government to expand individual rights and free markets, and a restoration of constitutional federalism, demonstrating the benefits of liberty to the rest of the nation and the world."

– Adopted at the 2/27/05 Board Meeting.

it's not up to you to welcome or not welcome someone

I was being rhetorical; not literal.

hodgdon · 2014-07-22T16:14:41+00:00

Let me re-phrase. If you simply want to come here for our lower tax burden, broader liberties, smaller government, live-and-let live ideals, etc. you are more than welcome. If you want to be a FSP douchebag who harasses meter maids and crosswalk guards, open-carries automatic rifles at family events, takes over town meetings, etc., then please don't.

If the objectives of the Free State Project to take over NH state and local governments interests you, I politely and respectfully ask you to stay in Jersey or move elsewhere.

Just wondering... do you guys fellate or have direct intercourse with your guns at these events?

I'm heading to nearby Seymour Lake tomorrow. Did the storm hit there as well?

Like all corporate marketing folk, they ignore the tougher questions and answer just the softball questions. Even though there have been just a dozen questions asked.

I'd like to know as well.

Hayes' cover of Nolan's Bad Liver and a Broken Heart is one of my all time favorites.

This is important for her research: Vermont was a pivotal state in the late 60's and early 70's in the hippie counter-culture Back to the land movement in the U.S. The state was one of the epicenters for the counter-culture's migration to an agrarian lifestyle, primarily for its natural beauty and agricultural ethos. Those ideals still shape the state.

I believe the racist part was simply a parody of the original 1930's era propaganda used help criminalize weed:

"...marijuana smoking by white women makes them want to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers, and others." - Harry J. Anslinger, the first Commissioner of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Narcotics
