Scott -
I do not think that the post YOU responded to was necessarily alleging Denverites etc are inferior. I gather that is your interpretation. It seems to me that the "well, if you don't have lots of wonderful things to say about the place (regardless of any of it's shortcomings - as most places do have - and what good might come of them via broaching the subject) we don't want you here anyhow" or the auto-assumption that Northeasterners (or people from elsewhere) are too self-important actually sometimes manifests in people-that-believe-that as coming off as self-important/defensive/closed-minded etc themselves! ...which is probably what many of those that have a harder time with Denver/CO may be, in part, experiencing.
Just some food for thought.
