That's a very good point!

And some of the most vocal, chest thumping pro-Denver people I've seen are actually recent transplants themselves-- just like how converts to a new religion tend to be the most zealous.

Maybe it's a generational thing. I don't know anybody my age (mid 20s) in Denver who hates LA/ California.
