Good song (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=33:gpfpxzu0ldhe), but a bad idea for Main St. ;)

A roundabout definitely isn't needed at that intersection. Winchester St. at Island St. would make more sense. There's actually a third street that intersects there too.

This is a hot issue, and a good time to point out wasteful expenditures in Keene. Maybe it's protest time? I assume you must be a Keene resident to sign the petition though.

Everytime I see this thread, I think of "Yes".
