Threads have a way of getting out of hand. The original question was a simple and easy to understand "Anyone out there tried commuting out of Eagle or Yampa Valley?" It quickly degenerated to the relative virtues of California and Texas, with people vying with each other about the value of their own real estate. Then it deteriorated further into a useless discussion of political leanings. The hubris and meaningless personal commentary continues.
So, if anyone has tried commuting out of Eagle or Yampa Valley, please post your answer. If you have not commuted out of Eagle or Yampa Valley, take your issues and problems private or start another thread.
