Couldn't agree with you more. Unfortunately people haven't learned from their ancestors past mistakes and continue to try to force their beliefs upon others. I think a lot of it has to do with religion... read up on past patriots like Anne Hutchinson. Puritans, Quakers, and Catholics all learned to live together here by respecting each other (eventually, if not initially) and letting others do as they please. A core libertarian principal that I hope to see become more popular.

I bet in CO the snow has been crazy. I'm surprised you could even get out. A former coworker just moved out there and has kept in touch. He said it's been unbelievable and he's ready to move back. haha
