Speaking of stirring the pot Mr. Pineedles......please do not PM me again asking me personal questions about who I might be. I will tell you only that I am a well respected member of the Lakes Region community.

Is the claim that Winfabs represent the vast majority of the property owners on the lake. That is a huge false statement. When the speed limit bill was up for a vote, I presented a petition to Rep. Pilliod signed by over 600 property owners on the lake that opposed the bill. He said, the votes are already in. This petition was only circled among those who live on the Gilford / Alton Broads section of the lake. A small section.

I enjoy using the lake as I see fit within reason. NOBODY is going to tell me otherwise. I seen the lake as a great place to be in the last 60 years. I expect it to be a great place for the rest of my years, my children, and my grandchildren.

I will continue to fight those who come into this area and tell us natives what to do. If this bill is defeated. I will make sure it will come up again and again until there is a compromise.

In case you were wondering, Center Harbor and Meredith are represented by Senator Jeanie Forrester. Moultonborough, Tuftonboro, and Wolfeboro are represented by Senator Jeb Bradley. Alton, Gilford, and Laconia are represented by Senator Jim Forsythe.

Three cheers.....hut-hut-hut.....go out to Senator Forrester and Senator Bradley for supporting the existing 45-30 speed limit on Lake Winnipesaukee.....

If the speed limits gets replaced with a "reasonable & prudent" speed law, then you can expect to see the big, super-duper go-fast boats like the Outer Limits be relettering the boat names on their transoms with names like "Reasonable & Prudent."

How's about "Slow & Steady" for a new name to grace a 27' Skater powered up by twin 300-hp racing Mercs.

Some other new names could be: Reasonable & Prudent, Slow & Steady, Implied Safety, Speed is Safe, and Speed Pays!

I was curious, that's all Rusty. I PM'd you because I didn't want it made public. Other business owners don't make it a secret what businesses they operate, because I imagine they are proud of their businesses. Sheeze it, what a grouch!

BTW, here is the PM I sent you for everyone to see. Real threat here. Yup.

"Are you the owner of Church's Landing? As well as other accomodations in Meredith?"

Thanks, I know where to never spend my money! What other locations is he the owner? Please tell me I have never partronized his business(es)

I know the marina I bought my boat and the marina where I slip don't mind the money I spend on my menacing bad mo-fo 320 hp, rooster-tail making Four Winns bowrider!

Look at how the SL crowd has to use exaggeration and mistruths when they testify. Every boat with a propeller is a renegade to that pro-SL crowd.

I'd take fast boats over an over-developed shoreline anyday... but who am i to judge.

I like everything about the lake and the state of NH and the freedom people have to make choices. I like having "live free or die" on our license plate. I just want it to mean something.

And also those of Alex Ray (both professed speed limit supporters):
