    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    Push back and claw back. That is what should happen. I can't do it, as you know my position. But someone should lead a movement that will select at least 15 to 30 of the planned roads to be closed and promote them as roads that should remain open because they are wide enough to use, are actually...

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    Disingenuous to the extreme. Does not mention at all the good people of the forest who have been driving the open roads for decades: "Unfortunately, there is some opposition to these common-sense maps, such as small groups of off-road vehicle users and certain other interests that have been...

    Gun Club Deeds And Other Places

    Yes, Jackson Mills, on page 79 in More Forgotten Towns, there is a photo of an oil contraption (derrick?).

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    No, they aren't. Notice in the words it's advice: "For your safety PLEASE stay on the trails....". I'm sure they don't have a regulation against going off trail.

    Introducing my 2023 traditional USGS-style topo

    Sometimes, in things like that Boyd, one guy at the top can set the tone for what must be done. You remember the KISS principle, right? I worked for the Navy over 35 years, and they had a writing manual that was very good at suggesting writers cut out the bull and unecessary stuff.

    Dr. Greene

    Thanks Jeff, but Smoke_jumper actually nailed it down. For some reason his posts have dissapeared from this thread, but you can see part of them in my reply at #9 on the first page.

    Tim, you don't say whether what you described is a good thing or a bad thing.

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    I wrote to the board of public utilities. I got this, which tells me something I didn't know. Dear Mr. Moyer, Thank you for writing the Board of Public Utilities (Board), Office of Cable Television and Telecommunications (OCTV&T) concerning Xfinity monopolizing Barnegat. Competition in the...

    Do you watch the phillies and cable news, or is that free on the firestick

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    Yes, I could ditch the tv part like Guy did, but that will still leave me having to buy another service to get the phillies and cable news. I have a smart tv, so I would not need one of those sticks like Roku(?) or whatever.

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    I have no other option here, maybe because here the utilities are underground and someone like Verizon does not want to fool with that? I'm not getting alternate offers at all. I'm a Phillies and Cable news fan, and still reluctant to give that up. Everyone wants a piece of you, right...

    Xfinity Cable Service Increase

    In December of 2023, their service was increased by 7%. In December of 2024, my bill was again increased, this time by 9.7% I have a couple questions. I'd like some feedback if I'm wrong. There is something rotten in the way they are doing this. They must have submitted a big increase of 17%...

    Snow coming next week?

    I suppose I was wrong about any radar system in Mount Holly.

    Pine Barren History Shorts

    That sounds fishy, or at the very least, downright foolish.

    Snow coming next week?

    No thanks Boyd. I'm not that interested. I was only wondering if that was Whiting. I never knew, I thought it was still Mount Holly.
