Reply to comment by [deleted] in The New Haven Green As It Appeared On The Famous 4th Of July In 1779 When The British Were Attacking The City! 😢 243 Years Ago! Great picture! The Stiles 1775 Map identifies the buildings as: Court House, First Presbyterian Meeting House and Third Presbyterian Meeting House. by twoshovels

I kinda feel like even from the 70s on up this would apply to NH. I remember the NH cops all to well & they never fooled around.

Reply to If big bounce happens, are we living same lives again and again? by EmbarrassedFriend693

30 years ago no one even remotely thought about this type of thing no one had anxiety over it because no one thought about this. Every once in a while you might have thou, “gee I wonder what would happen if a meteor hit earth?” Then as quickly as you thought about it you’d forget about it . You would just go in living your life. I’m convinced with the advancement of technology,internet, and all the tv shows & information about space is the cause. Sometimes what you don’t know won’t hurt you.

So actually after I jus read this. Other tenants could very possibly drawing off the same breaker. I believe a air fryer use 12-15 at the most? An one laptop is .08? Now I could be wrong here. If I’m correct that’s not a lot. Probably is a shared breaker. This sounds like a disaster waiting. I hope not. I’m not big on electricity. In fact I hate having to do anything other than plug something in.

Ok as someone who does a ton of maintenance for property management company’s in Fla . Every single tenant complains to me how the owner doesn’t do nothing. One thing the owners are on top of for the most part is the plumbing because that is a real health issue. These homes are no where’s near as old as a Victorian you are in. The electric is no game. The fact your tripping breakers with only3-4 things running? Is a huge no-no. Old house, dryer than dry in the walls. Please, please if you don’t have get smoke detectors please!! Get some,& have plan. Then have a back up plan. Think ahead!! Call everyone including code enforcement this isn’t safe. I have done a ton of work in some of those older homes in new haven and around. A lot of them are like tinder. With hold your rent then he will have to fix these things. It costs a shit ton of money & leg work to evict.

Do you happen to know what route was his? That’s really neat . The story in my family is my grandfather owned an Indian motorcycle and I wish I knew more . Something about a wreck with a trolly. He was ok and I believe it was one of his legs was effected somehow. Needless to say motorcycles were a big NO ,NO as well as anything on Two wheels. My grandfather died B4 I was born & no one really talked about him I guess he was on the shady side.

Waaay better time I think. One can always find pros & cons with then vs now. Just seems like it was more tranquil bck then. I think it would be really cool if they brought the trolleys back. But I’m sure there’s a bucket full of cons that go with bringing trolleys bck.
