To the Editor,
Please don’t vote down a unique Vermont tradition.  Please, everybody who can attend Town Meeting do so.  It is one of the traditions that makes Vermont unique.  I am afraid if we go to just Australian ballot that some budgets will be voted down that people really just...
To the Editor,

To the Editor,
