This is an idea whose time has come. Having spent time in Denver ("oh
really?") I personally believe that Washington and Denver deserve each
other. In fact, the similarities are so amazing that I can't figure out
why this has not been proposed before. You could transport East Colfax
Avenue right smack into the middle of almost anyplace in Washington and
nobody would notice, except for the fact that from what I hear, the
whores around here cost a little more.

Also, Denver would definitely benefit culturally from any change away
from its present monoethnic culture. I mean, the place is as white as a
Barbie-Doll convention. No soul at all in that joint.

Actually what we really really need is some King Soopers. Oh, and more
laundromats.
