Come to think of it Dude. He is right in some sense. Utah is like a country within a country. Everything about this place is different than America. The landscape , the cultures etc.. :D

Yep , this is truly Mormon country. The first thing you will notice if you come to a Mormon town is , the streets dont have names at all. Its all 100 North , 200 North ..... ie - parallel streets named in the ascending order. Religion plays a huge role in these peoples' lives. If you are Mormon , then you have to go on a 1-2 year mission for the church to some country, be it Latin America , S.America or even Europe. So you have many students taking a year long breaks from school to go on such missions. People get married by 20-21 , have 4-5 kids atleast and whole society is very family oriented. And the thing that is starkly different here when compared to America is - The people are very conservative. Rarely do people drink/smoke. In fact the only people you find smoking on campus are Indian or Chinese students. Youngsters dont date , girls dress VERY conservatively ( the only time one can see skin is when they go to the Gym). Night life is almost non-existent. The whole town just becomes desolate after night-fall. And not to mention about the weather. Utah has one of the most fickle weather conditions around. I have myself seen Snow-Sun-Rain on three consecutive days. Summers are oppressively hot , winters are bitingly cold. Its like a different place every 4 months ! :D
