‎Talk: On further thought... "proselytize" is perfectly fine, but not as understandable to the general public as "seeks converts'.

 ===Utah liquor laws===
 Utah's liquor laws are known as one of the more peculiar things about the state.  Liquor is sold only in state-owned stores which can cost more than in other states - but are neat, clean and always well stocked.  In fact, the wine stores are brimming with a surprising selection of wines.  "Near-beer" (3.2% alcohol by weight/4% alcohol by volume, as opposed to the standard 4-6% alcohol by volume) replaces the usual brew, which is available in stores and restaurants. "Full strength," or, "Strong Beer," is available in bars and liquor stores. Also, state law prohibits the serving of more than 1.5 ounces of alcohol as the primary liquor in a mixed drink. This used to be circumvented with the purchase of a "sidecar" (a separate shot of liquor), but the laws have recently been amended. Secondary alcoholic flavorings may then be added to a mixed drink as the recipe requires.

-English. On top of the Latino population that speaks Spanish, there are a surprising number of non-native Spanish speakers, especially in Salt Lake City and Provo, since the LDS church actively proselytizes in Latin America. "No hablo inglés" doesn't work anymore when these guys knock at your door.  The universities also have a large number of foreign speakers, particularly Chinese.
