BARTONSVILLE, Vt. (AP) — By the time Susan Hammond came downstairs at 9 a.m. the rain was falling hard. Standing on the back deck with Sunday coffee in hand, she looked down the hill and through the trees to where the usually lazy Williams River powered over rocks, loud enough to compete with the din of Tropical Storm Irene's downpour.

Standing under umbrellas just beyond the bridge's portal, Hammond and her neighbors traded talk of the storm, before she headed back to the house.

Or there’s the mainstream route of the U.S. brands, and their own winking-at-you names, like Townhouse from Ralph Lauren, and Love Affair from Benjamin Moore. A trip to the paint store seems as if it might help narrow the choices, too, until you stand before the wall of infinite paint shades. The feeling sinks in: the horror of the fan deck.
Eve Ashcraft calls this anxiety the “vortex,” and she has spun it into a thriving business as a color consultant who can, in spite of her low-key Midwestern manner,
