One of the things I liked about my former abode was that, when you commented on this sort of revoltin' development, the response was a dry, "Well, you live in MAINE." The funny part was that it wasn't unsympathetic, just ... sigh ... realistic. New Hampshire shouldn't be different, but in a booming metropolis like this, the hides are thinner.
It's simpler up here. "Well, you live in CANADA" pretty much covers us from coast to - well, the Alberta-British Columbia border. (Those shrinking violets in British Columbia wouldn't know a winter if it bit them on the spandex-clad, latte-sipping, Mac-using derrières.)
