However from the dates that looks like the second study done in 2006. Who paid for the "New Hampshire Poll" done in the spring of 2005?
The article was written in Feb 06 and mentions a previous study, I don't think it is unrealistic that they could be talking abut the 05 study, especially if the results were only released later in the year.

It was commissioned by a clear supporter of Winnfabs, people that are probably members of Winnfabs as well. Basically the same people! A pretty basic way of putting just enough distance between the two so that it is not so obvious that Winnfabbs is behind it. No conspiracy theory needed...

The solid fact here is that it was started by a supporter of the speed limit. That is hard to deny. If this was to be a real survey it should have been conducted by a neutral party and with a group that had solid knowledge of the lake instead of people that may not have ever even been here. Your group claims that the MP speed study was tainted but don't think this one is? Give me a break!!!

At this point I don't really care what happens. I think that it is a pathetic campaign that the supporters have concocted to push this through. Fear, lies and misconceptions are all that this is based on. It won't affect me either way.

I hope you get what you wish for, the end result many not be as pleasant as you think...
