Wow, very cool, good for him.

He's not sure what he wants to do in the long run, but he knows it has something to do with chemical engineering. He also wants to teach English in Japan.

I've got a friend who is teaching English in Japan.  He really likes it.

"Subtracting out bullshit-pledgers, about 700 people are going based on the "1000 pledge"  and very few of those are going to cheese out if the official number comes up 200 short." 
If I got the fuzzy math right, that would mean ~500 people actually move.
Considering that there are less than 500 free-staters now, and only 200 of them are early-movers, that means a DOUBLING in the number of free-staters! All I can say to that is, holy f---ing sh!+, we can get a HELL of a lot done with TWICE AS MANY OF US!!

That's what I'm screaming, Denis.  1000 activists by 2008 would flood the state, and I hope we get that many by 2008, but 500 activists by 2008 would be a very powerful river.  Especially with all the NH natives who are climbing on board the freedom movement...

Barterer

Denis, that sounds about right.. plus there will be a few FSPers that will move in that timeframe who never bothered with the 1st 1000 pledge.   

Plus the NH natives that wake up as like-minded people begin to move in.. good point Rocketman.  BTW, I'm also a homebrewer.  We'll have to have a brew-off when I get there.  :icon_pirat:  I'll have to give you some competition, but for now I envy you.  Or as KBCraig says, you suck!

Sorry, something's gone wrong?

It is back up...for now.  :'(

All I had to do was re-visit the link from the confirmation email to re-create the pledge, and my first signer(fisher) had to do the same to re-pledge. A troll friendly system  ;)

Barterer

Good one  ;D Now if we can just get TWO people to sign your pledge 10 times apiece, that will complete the whole chain reaction and 800 people will move to NH! Come on you guys, time is running out.

Also - you might want to adjust your image on moneydollars.com.  I was thinking "Hmm, there's a man about to get socked in the eye with his own scope.  Hopefully the lense cap will cushion the blow."  ;)

I was planning on leaving NH for Grad school, but I have decided to stay because of the FSP.

I'll be moving to Florida this sunday, and if all works out I should be making the move back to NH 5 days later. Can I sign?

Dreepa

yup
and join the FSP at the same time.

What do you want to study, earthhaven?

I want to start homebrewing after I leave the dorms (in about 6 months) . . . hopefully after my third or fourth batch I'll be ready to enter the competition.

I'm a psychology major which is a useless degree without graduate school. Homebrew is a lot of fun. My brother used to do it before he turned 21. For us, it was kind of like moon shine  :icon_pirat:.

Yeah, most humanities/social science degrees are pretty useless without a grad school degree.  I plan on framing my history degree in May, putting it on the wall, and finding a job in newspapers or convenience stores or something   :-[  Do you want to go into therapy, or research, or teaching, or . . . ?
