Interesting that you should talk about people being increasingly un-neighborly. I’ve noticed this recently. People are really hunkering down. Even with Christmas cards, there were people who send cards every year who didn’t do it this year. Maybe it’s the economy?
I am sure it is, partly the economy. But mostly it is the completely divided political climate, and it is especially apparent in the NE, where it has been this way for at least the last 10 years.
