PorcFest 2011 has already been featured in TWO news releases (a podcast/article and a radio spot/article) by NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO! The kicker? FAIR (and even FAVORABLE) COVERAGE!

1. You have been involved with Free Staters in New Hampshire for a while now. I've seen you at Porcfest, Live Free or Die and Free Keene Fest. What are your impressions of the growth and changes you have seen within the liberty movement and specifically the activists in New Hampshire?

The FSP has started something amazing. I’d love to see liberty in my liftime.
