    Cheaper rent, better paying job? While wyo has some perks. The downside is the wind and weather. Mostly the wind............................

    People keep talking about the wind here. It really isn't any worse than NoCo. And WY doesn't even crack the top ten of windiest states. Nebraska is no.1.

    Also, according to AWEA (American Wind Energy Assoc.) Wyoming is 7th in wind energy resources. Colorado is 8th for most wind energy projects. Texas is 1st, Wyoming doesn't make it in the top ten.

    All that aside, I'll put up with some wind in exchange for more of my money making it into my pocket.

    Could you imagine the cow smell in Greeley if you didn't have the wind though?

    This articles numbers are pure horse shit. I have seen recent estimates putting national gun ownership over 50%. If Colorado has 5,268,367 people and half of those are adults that's 2,634,183 and that would put 50% ownership at 1,317,091. And they claim 63,178 people own guns, that's only 5% of my rough estimate.

    I know people that given the size of there collections could change the percentages of these numbers by themselves.

    I have to suspect what there motives are for such a low number. Maybe they believe they can convince the anti's it is only a small number of gun owners that will be effected by confiscation.

    I used to work about a block from the meat plant. That was brutal regardless of the wind. Working on the west side of town I don't notice at much anymore.

    hate to derail here. But I feel like only a person in a windy state would have that kind of knowledge on wind

    I just looked that all up. Figured I'd back up my claims with facts. People like to assume WY us too windy. I grew up in NoCo, moved to Cheyenne a few years ago. Not much difference in wind.
