Did you not see where it says "big changes are coming"? That was the whole point. That wasn't there before and was recently added.

everything is s'posed to be bigger in Texas they should combine DisneyLand with Vegas and give us a real Texas sized theme park in Katy. A place where both kids and adults can have fun

I think that was me, if you're talking about this one: Snow Mountain, Texas: Indoor Skiing in Houston » Swamplot: Houston’s Real Estate Landscape

You cannot compare the lush green south texas area to the dry scenery lacking north texas area

People are voting with their feet and DFW is winning. We take great pride in our rolling prairie terrain. Im sure you guys take great pride in that Bayou.

Even "God bless America" mentions the beauty of the prairies

"From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America, My home sweet home."

Lumping College Station into the amenities of Houston doesn't really help the city's relative status. UGA also must then get lumped into Atlanta (practically Auburn Univ too), UVA/Johns Hopkins into DC, etc.

Lots of Wacoans feel the same way about Dallas?? What's your point??

I had no idea UGA was so close to ATL metro. Damn there are a lot of colleges in North GA.
