The only redeeming feature of Utah, which also happens to be white
like its "great people", is snow for skiing.

God forbid you're not a mormon if living there. It's like being an
Arab in Israel.

You should visit there some time. I had a customer in Ogden. Never had
any
problems with not being Mormon. Got tickets to the M.T. Choir for the
Christmas concert. Took my Catholic wife. Had a great time. Just was in
St. George, UT. bought new tires at Costco. 4% less sales tax than
Calif.
Thriving city. Get a life. You live in the Liberal, bankrupt bastion of
Seattle. Think that city is diversified?

Yeah, that's your measure of a fine state, the % of sales tax.

My city isn't homogenous, has plenty of representation from all parts
of the earth, but it does suffer from some measure of segregation.

My kids go to fully integrated schools where they meet, learn and make
friends with kids of all cultures, religions, backgrounds. Quite a
few Mormons live here too.

There's no way that's happening in Utah.

I worked with a very famous musician and helped manage re-releases of
his records on CD when the changeover was happening from vinyl. He
received a demo tape from a rock band from Ogden. They were called
"Proof of Utah." He laughed his head off when he saw the letter.

Everyone knows Utah is a cloistered bunghole of a state.

Everyone? Or just liberal bigots? But Utah is not a high crime state like
Washington.
