Reply to comment by mycophdstudent in New England may not have enough natural gas to last the winter by mycophdstudent

Overall I like living in VT, but it's not just "anti-nuclear". Vermonters will cut off their nose to spite their face for anything that isn't asthetic.

That mindset has a place - billboards are gawdy and trashy - but it's expanded to a bunch of green energy initiatives. Just look at the windmill project that was denied in Windham/Grafton a few years ago - it would have been a huge benefit to the local communities but voters decided ruining their view wasn't worth it.

Its It's like the people who complain about spotty cell service then vote against erecting a hilltop cell tower or complain about the lack of housing then vote in support of regulations which discourage housing development.
