Do We Need City-Data NH (live, title, best) - New Hampshire - City-Data Forum

I’ll tell you my viewpoint.

Now it could be that I’ve had way too much coffee this morning.

I need to say this.. I am very grateful to all of you who contribute to the NH board. I’m still learning. When I have a question I do a search first to see if it’s already been answered. That’s a good thing right.

I started in 2007 and I was so appreciative of the help I received. I am back and I will still have questions about Who, What, Where in NH.

but I will give back in any way I can. When I saw that movie” Pay it Forward” it resonated with me in a profound way. And so when I found City Data… well it just all made sense. Thank you Onward and Upward

Keltic - if you've had too much coffee this morning, then so have I because I feel the same way

When we relocated to NH, I think I drove a lot of people crazy with my questions....I guess I still do sometimes...but everyone has always been very nice and patient with me.

You know, it's kinda funny - some people get all freaked out with the internet and "talking" to people on forums, message boards, etc. I first started with message boards many moons ago when Prodigy was a major force in the internet. I "met" a lot of people on those forums. I consider some of them my best friends - I've met some in "real life", others only through email or the phone, but when I've needed info or support or whatever, they've been there for me - more so than a lot of friends in "real life". Heck I even met my husband on the internet - we lived 5 miles from each other and had never met until we "found" each other on the internet!

DTDream, I agree with you my first time was when I had AOL in 1989 Wow!! There is a tremendous amount of resources on the internet and on City Data very helpful. Some folks might say well sometimes folks can be mean but isn't that everywhere

For me I try to follow that book, great and fast read btw..Dale Carnegies ( How to Win Friends and Influence People written in 1949 ish could be wrong about dates

and amazing how the teachings of this book hold true today..What did Dale say in book that spoke to me " Avoid commens on politics and religion " makes sense that is personal to every individual. Also Monty Python has a great skit if anyone gets to see it...Title " The Argument Clinic" Hilarious..so I'm not into arguments..everyone has an opinion, advice take what works for you ..Kelty

I don't NEED city-data but I certainly enjoy the dialog. Thanks for the conversation.

Aw, c'mon Greg - you know you NEED at least the NH forum for comic relief!

I definitely need it right now-- I've been "hovering" over this forum and the Oregon forum for days, mulling over the differences and similarities between the two. I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that the two places are two entirely separate and distinct cultures, radically differing in their underlying structures. It's been almost like a rather intense anthropology seminar. Fascinating, as Mr. Spock would say.

SHE drove from NY to NH to meet YOU for the first time? Geesh, you'd a thunk you could have gone to meet her on her "turf" for the first time!
