It's interesting, something about NH, and the whole live free or die
individualistic streak, does seem to manifest in musical involvement with JI
and other alternate tunings. Years before I moved here, when first starting
to explore JI, I found out about the Frog Peak folks in the Hanover area,
and Buzz Kimball, they were all working out of NH. And since living here,
I've found a few folks with similar interests in JI and experimental music.

I don't think it's so much in the water though as the ice :-)
