Colorado also has the most educated and most

Glory!

That's interesting. If true, then the educational standards for the
rest of the US must be terrible.

In the 70's a university graduate friend from New Zealand applied to
Colorado State for admission as a Ph.D. student. He received a nice
letter explaining that.. "We are sorry but we have to decline your
application as we do not accept enrolments from students whose first
language is not English" - yet that was all he spoke.

Given that inhabitants of Australia speak "Oz" one would suppose that
an individual from New Zealand would speak "Zed" and thus not be
acceptable to an American collage.
