(i know, it has nothing to do with license plates, but i was talking about this last week with a co-worker who was headed up to NH and planned on stopping to see the old man. unfortunately she didn't know that gravity won that battle and it's no more)
Our governor at the time (Craig Benson, a colossal failure) formed a team to look into rebuilding it... I don't know why. I never heard anything about that so I guess they decided not to. There are plenty of things they could spend their money on that would make a heck of a lot more sense than rebuilding a rock formation, IMO. Still, it would be nice to have it back. Now all our state route signs are out of date (they are in a box and on the left side it has the profile of the Old Man.)
