#5... True, but the wages here are equivalent to Mississippi with a California cost of living. Those west coast cities are a lot more affordable. And there are presumably people there who aren't old, rich and white, which you will not find in VT.

I'm assuming the "M" stands for 1,000? So in December/January your around 250kwh and in the summer your pushing 1200-1500kwh?

VT does not exist in a vacuum, as much as some of us would like it to. When climate change destabilizes the world, VT is not going to be safe, it's going to be overrun.

The word is out, the jersey gentrification is on, vt is dead and gone. Even the relatively chill VT of 2015 is gone. Now it's big money, big entitlement.

>Psilocybin ( sy-lə-SY-bin, ) is a naturally occurring psychedelic prodrug compound produced by more than 200 species of fungi. The most potent are members of the genus Psilocybe, such as P. azurescens, P. semilanceata, and P. cyanescens, but psilocybin has also been isolated from about a dozen other genera. Psilocybin is itself biologically inactive but is quickly converted by the body to psilocin, which has mind-altering effects similar, in some aspects, to those of LSD, mescaline, and DMT. In general, the effects include euphoria, visual and mental hallucinations, changes in perception, a distorted sense of time, and perceived spiritual experiences.

H-0371 doesn’t “decriminalize therapeutic plants and fungi”. It is quite a but narrower in its target of psilocybin.
If you want people to sign petitions, be less creative in your claims.

Proximity to Boston and no state income tax.

Good map, but even this method can be deceptive and hide the peak volume centers. E.g. the city of Boston is basically a dot on this map, but has a population basically equivalent to all of Vermont’s!

It's the coming and going for me. How am I supposed to know when I'm actually well? I did get the vomiting and it was awful.

My parents house used to be off grid with solar, when they connected they kept the system and it charges a battery bank before going to the grid. It’s a bank of car batteries that can run the well pump, hot water heater, wifi and a few lights. They could go indefinitely if needed. I’m sure there are more efficient battery systems now. They also have to turn it on manually.

How long am I going to be dying? Last weekend was bad. Like bad, bad. Out both ends. Dizzy. Headache. Body aches. Monday I was fine. Tuesday right back where I was. Don't feel great today but better than yesterday. I can't take much more of this. Any idea how long this is going to last and what did you all take to help?

The dumpster behind Burlington marble (in Shelburne) is full of scraps/off cuts and they don’t mind if you take them. Just go in and ask first

I know that's how it works when a solar power company 'rents' your roof. I didn't know that it's always an issue. Thanks for the heads up, I'll have to look into that more.

Having solar doesn't make you off grid able since the solar feeds the grid and you draw from the grid. So if the grid goes out so does your power even if the sun is shining(at least that's how I understand it. If you have a battery storage system if the grid goes out the battery turns on like a generator. I could be wrong but most batteries will give you at best a couple of days of power so if the power goes out for an extended period like we had in December it may not last.

Agreed. We spend so much on low roi energy sources instead of better utilizing what’s available today.

Yes, but far, far lower wages.
