I listened to him when he was invited to speak to the NH legislature by the NH Legislature, which paid him with taxpayer dollars.

He is a libertarian, but was employed by the NY University system, and thus a "public servant."

The reason they targeted NH is that the legislative elections are so cumbersome and low-key that it is easy for a few people in one town to elect someone, since so few residents know people by much more than name.

another fellow former MN resident - we live in SW NH since last year - while it was a dry summer, I did not see any ticks to speak of, just found a few during an extended deep brush hike with my son in the fall. I had all these horror stories shared on this subreddit, but I think it's really just situational. If you went into the deep brush it would probably be icky depending on the time of year.

The weird midges and biting flies though, that's a new thing for us, glad we live in a town and not out in the country. Picaridin is some good stuff, highly recommend.

This winter has been unusually warm but wow it's the easiest/warmest winter I've ever experienced in my life! you'll love being able to go for long bike rides in February.

Commuting from Hooksett to Chelmsford between 6-7am on Thursday… would I be better off leaving earlier? Will it be bad or just wet?

Bless you cloudboy ❄️
