Sorry, I guess it's just totally different viewpoints, but I wouldn't move some place with the expectation that everyone there wants to learn to be just like the place I came FROM.
I'm just saying that you may not want to generalize about people from MA. For me it's the ways, pace, etc. that attract me to NH. I've lived in the same town since I was born. I never, ever thought I'd want to leave. But the more time I spend around Laconia, the more friends we make and the more I see the differences between NH and MA the more I lean towards NH rather than MA. For example my wife still makes fun of me because I love the fact that in NH you can set the little lever on the gas pump handle. In the People's Republic of MA they've all been removed and your fingers freeze solid in winter time because you have to keep squeezing the handle. It's the little things...

I hope we're cool.
