It appears that the NH Boat show will have a reduced crowd this year!

Two comments: I think we're seeing the result of a different philosophy at play here, one that has an analog in snow storms. At one point, nothing shut down for snow as it was just "normal" life, but now everything—schools, libraries, government buildings, restaurants, etc.—shuts down in order to avoid as much damage as possible.

Also, in this litigious/critical/condemning world, it's difficult/impossible to not be aggressive when thinking about possible consequences, especially when others begin a movement.

In the case of colleges in MA, with some closing and moving to online semester finishes, it will become increasingly hard for others to not do the same.
