So they’re moving from Austin, TX to a remote cabin (no electricity) in central VT to be organic homesteaders?

Do they realize that VT has winters?

Have they ever grown enough food to sustain them for a year at a time?

He wants to keep his job as a telecommuting sysadmin, but doesn’t know if there’s even Internet access “in the woods.”

How will they feel about having to kill brush and trees to get space to grow food?

I’ve met turkeys smarter than them...

Ha! One winter in VT ought to fix them quite nicely... They'll be banging on the doors of some well-off neighbor after their hatchet breaks and they have burned all the furniture for firewood.
