At Lake Opechee Inn, in Laconia, New Hampshire, a mixed crowd of well dressed retirees, middle aged working people, some of us old hippies and many dozens of young people filled the room to capacity, with a couple of rows of folks standing around the back.

Farming and gardening in the cold northern states can be a challenge.

Buying seed and starting your own plants enables us to choose those unusual varieties not available at the big box stores or local Agway, while saving us a great deal of money.

Anyone with a sunny plot of land can assemble this simple and low cost temporary coldframe with materials available at every hardware store or big box home improvement store. No building skills necessary.

Follow me below the fancy orange Chanterelle.

Things we know...

Corporate power and cronyism trump most considerations for the wellbeing of the citizens of our country.

Most elite members of congress are in the pocket of these corporate entities and cannot be relied upon to advocate for our best interests.

Costs for everything, from housing to higher education to health care, have risen beyond a reasonable percentage of most people's income, and one small disaster- losing that job or needing an appendectomy when there is no health care coverage- can render one's family homeless.

These are such simple statements.

The stress and fear and pain that is encompassed in them is immense.

So many diaries expertly lay out the problems confronting us but, so far, we have not seen much focus on solutions that could work immediately, actions we can take ourselves.

Begging for help via e-mail to politicians seems pointless- for the time being, and probably forever after, we are on our own.

We need to consider a new paradigm for daily living that does not include waiting for Congress.

We need to find sustainable methods to sidestep their game.

Right now..

This article, by Paul J. Nyden, appeared Dec. 16 in the Sunday Gazette-Mail, Charlestown, West Virginia.

People who lived near the former Monsanto plant in Nitro that produced dioxins and related chemicals may still sue the company for personal and property damages.

So can residents who lived near more than 40 other chemical plants throughout the country that Monsanto once owned and operated.
