I live in New Hampshire (obviously). I'm not a native but have lived her most of my life and my grandparents on both sides lived here. I live on the southern edge of the White Mts, with my home literally on the side of a mountain. I work a little ways west of Nashua, and have a daughter who lives on the Seacoast.

I have been on DU since just after Obama was inaugurated, and have served as moderator for the past two years. Being a host here in the New Hampshire group is not likely to be a demanding job. I don't expect a lot of trolls will be interested, and it's hard to imagine this being the site of major dramas. But just in case, my philosophy is to maintain a light touch. Let people talk about the things they want to talk about, as long as they are respectful and follow DU rules.

The most important task, I think, would be trying to attract people to come and post here, to make this a more active group than it has ever been in the past.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
