Talk:967: Prairie

Except it's not a perfect analogy because each grain is a separate entity, and it's an external force, the wind, that produces the wave motion. Davidy²²[talk] 08:24, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

It actually works out better than you think, because a laser requires an external energy source to pump it. Colorado is also shaped like a laser cavity. 173.245.48.125 06:36, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Purple Mountains Majesties

The song America the Beautiful was written by Katharine Lee Bates, originally in the form of a poem entitled "Pikes Peak", which is a 14,000+ foot peak in Colorado Springs. I changed the phrasing of the article from "which may in fact allude to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado" to "which does in fact allude to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado." There is no question of whether the song refers to the Colorado Rocky Mountains.--108.162.215.55 20:36, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
