I don't know about Colorado, but in my home state, one can "Adopt A Highway" as an individual or group and have pretty much anything put on the sign, be it the name of the individual or group, or "In Memory Of", "In Honor Of", etc.
The really neat thing about this sign is that a fair number of people have almost certainly seen it and asked: "Who is John Galt?"
All movies aside, I wonder if 'It' is starting.
I wonder this because much of what Ayn and Tom Clancy predicted, has already occurred.
that is about 200 miles from Telluride. maybe they will move it when Telluride is over run by new residents as the country desends into hell.
The distance to Durango is about 100 miles and it is the longest one hundred miles you will drive in the USA. About 4 hours. while i have not seen the sign i strongly suspect it is on that stretch of hyway where it will be found. The section from Grand Junction to Telluride is pretty flat. Now as i think about it it could be from Ridgeway over Dallas divide to Placerville that leads into Telluride or the road from Telluride over Lizzardshead Pass. If i find out more definitive information i'll post it. .
Which, IMHO, encapsulates AR's "Never initiate force, never use emotion as a tool of cognizance."
Harry Binswanger clarified: "[Libertarians] ... plagarize Ayn Rand's principle that no man may initiate the use of force and treat it as a mystically revealed, out-of-context absolute... ...the crucial connection to be upheld is that between capitalism and reason. ... the "libertarians" are tying capitalism to the whim-worshiping subjectivism and chaos of anarchy. To cooperate ... is to betray capitalism, reason, and one's own future." (Q&A Dept: Anarchism, The Objectivist Forum, Aug. 1981, 12.)

i doubt it was done as a charitable contribution but to honor the name. governments like to attach them selves to anything and Colorado is no different.
