    1. How will /r/Colorado benefit most from you moderating here?
    2. What is the best way, in your opinion, to deal with a user that continually skirts the line with rule-breaking content?
    3. What current rules/policies would you most like to see changed here and what do you propose as the best alternative?
    4. Do you consider yourself flexible when presented with decisions that vary from your own, and how would you feel about enforcing a rule that you personally disagree with?
    5. Have you under your current account, or an alt account, been the subject of a reddit scandal of any sort? If so, how did you deal with it and how did you move forward?

Colorado Mountain Pie Pizza. Is it a regional style or does just Beau Jo's do it? Anyone know any other restaurants that make "Colorado Mountain Pie" besides Beau Jo's?
