This kind of perpetual litigation can have legitimate merit, according to Yale law prof George Priest, to the extent it means that there is more value to an ornery plaintiff than to some opportunistic defendant. The difference in this matter is that the public has an interest in developin…
Terrific article about wonderful coordination in the Valley toward seeing the gold in the Whites. The outdoors is "in", and the Valley will have many happy years ahead by recognizing that. Of course, for many of us, the outdoors has always been "in," but it's great to spread the enthusias…
The Valley depends on tourism, but neighbors of rental properties are affected by the transient folks acting poorly by neighborly standards. It's an interesting problem that has not been solved in places like Jackson Hole, which has gone largely to the rich.
Teen boys acting poorly with respect to other living beings should be no surprise to any parent of boys. Is the implicit charge that football is by nature something of a brutal sport? If so, make that case and leave the duck out of it. This is an example of unnecessary polaraization at th…

As for Article 2 inviting local government to dictate how people use their property for personal living and rental decisions, this sounds as though NH is going the way of socialist VT. I thought NH w…
Getting credit outside the system is threatening to the system and to potentially-shortchanged students who don't really measure up in off-site education. On the other hand, students can be potentially shortchanged by having to heel to the on-site system. Some compromise seems advisable.
Dave Oedel commented on A new twist: Grand razed, Market Basket built on top of it
One of the best April Fools' Day media gags I've seen in years. Incidentally, good jokes have real-world relevance, and bite.

Dave Oedel commented on Protesters call for release of Mueller report
