The sentence in the quoted letter from John Ratcliffe that says " Thirteen lakes have been shut down to power boats in New York state because of pollution." is not a factual statement, and it probably was derived from the power boat shut-down on Thirteenth Lake.

......just say'n .... that's all ..... possibly a Google search showed that Thirteenth Lake in New York state was shut down and it got re-translated into thirteen lakes in New York state have been shut down.

I knew the answer before I wrote the question. Was waiting for a response from that thread starter. Yes FLL, it was done with intent. It sounds much better to some to say it that way.

This just came to my in box. HB 1424 has been defeated today, apparently with a loud enough majority voice vote that a roll call vote was not done. Rep. Bordes, the sponsor of the bill, chose not to speak. And with a vote of 15:3 against the bill in the Transportation Committee and with the defection of 4 of the bill's 6 original co-sponsors the outcome should surprise no one. There was significant bipartisan support for our present 45/30 speed limit law.

Dear 45/30 Supporters:

We are pleased to report that the NH House has voted “Inexpedient to Legislate” (ITL) on HB 1424. This action grants final approval to the Transportation Committee recommendation to kill the bill. The House action ensures the current speed limit law will remain in place.

Today’s vote was conducted by voice only, so no record or roll call will be available.
