Some say that Colorado has four lovely seasons: Spring on 3 July, Summer on 4 July, Fall on 5 July and Winter. This is untrue. The mountains do receive a lot of winter snow and that is great for the skiers and the spring run-off makes for great white water rafting. The summers are comfortable, but keep a windbreaker handy if you are in the high country. Fall is a festival of color when the quakies change from green to yellow and red.

Why more time is required to boil pasta in denverand Colorado than in new Orleans and Louisiana?

The boiling point of any substance, including water, is dependent on two things, the temperature and the pressure. Water will boil if the temperature is high enough, or if the pressure is low enough. Colorado is at a higher altitude than Louisiana, so there is less air pressure in Colorado. The lower pressure in Colorado means that not as high of a temperature is required to bring water to a boil than in Louisiana. (New Orleans is in Louisiana, so they can be treated as the same place in this case). The result is that boiling point of water in Louisiana is about 212 degrees Fahrenheit, while it is about 202 degrees Fahrenheit in Colorado. Notice that the water in Colorado is boiling at a lower temperature. More time is require to cook it because the water that it is being cooked in is not as hot as the boiling water in Louisiana.
