What is the distance in miles from Hawaii to Fairfield Connecticut?

A flight from Hawaii to Fairfield, Connecticut would take about 9 hours to complete. There is approximately 4,991 miles between the two locations.

Do Connecticut laws allow out of state motorcycle permit holders to ride in Connecticut?

All 50 US states recognize drivers licenses from other states. Otherwise you would never be able to drive past your state borders without taking a test in all your neighboring states. This is an unnecessary burden on the individual and on interstate commerce, especially in smaller states where the state line is never more than an hour's drive away.

Although it is the responsibility of each driver to find how other state's laws differ, your license is still valid. For example, Connecticut and Massachusetts differ on who has the right of way in a traffic circle-- those already in it or vehicles entering the circle. (I can never remember which, but luckily Connecticut has done away with most of them. Strangely, there were a lot of accidents, perhaps from confusion over differing r-o-w laws?)

How do refer to someone from Connecticut?

The correct form is, according to R.M. Theis's Standard Lexicon of Titlology (1957, 2nd Edn., Oxon), for a man a "Connection" or, for a female, a "Connect". My own preference is to refer to either male or female as a "Connection" and to refer to both males and females as "Connections". It would appear that Theis accepted "Connections" as being the term for a group of either males or females from the area of Connecticut.

An indignant addendum:

I've lived in Connecticut for 40 years and never heard of this. And except for this exact answer being repeated on other sites, there is almost no mention when googling this reference. Seven hits in all of Google. Even if the above answer is not plagiarism, the answer is not at all a generally accepted one.

What is the value of a Liberty silver quarter dollar in mint condition be worth issued in the year 1788 with a picture of the Connecticut Charter Oak on the back?

Not silver, copper-nickel

Not 1788, either. That's the date Connecticut was admitted to the union.

Not worth anything more than 25 cents.

Bottom line: Take a look at all of the other state quarters that have been minted in the last 10 years. ALL OF THEM have both the date of issue and the date that the state joined the union.

What was the date of Fundamental Orders of Connecticut?

The Fundamental Orders were signed on January 14, 1639 (OS- ie, using the old Julian Calendar). This translates in the modern, Gregorian calendar to January 24, 1639 (NS). Both calenders were in use at the time of signing.

So although we now generally refer to this event as having occurred on January 24, 1639, the document itself reads January 14, 1638.
