1. Hey - Thanks for these - they're great!
I'm born and raised here and can't believe the changes in my lifetime (early 50's to right now) -- it's depressing to have observed the major population growth that has changed my small state into such a major traffic jam and land of McMansions -- now I can see what the old timers are talking about and it's no wonder they're feeling even more melancholy! I knew there were major problems then too but sometimes I long for the 'good old days'.

SIGH........

PJ
