[Grovenet] a puzzling observation

[David Morelli]

The speaker may have been thinking of the survivalists who reside in  
various area of the state and avoid following the various laws and  
regulations.

Or, the speaker may have been thinking that all the kids are miles  
away from parental control.

Or, they may have been thinking that we don't follow fashion trends.

Or, maybe it is just the freedom to eat rutabagas and post what you  
want to GroveNet?

I don't know.  Everyone seems to do something different.  <smile>
