I just thought you would find it interesting. I wasn't really trying to prove you wrong. Which category are you talking about?

I agree with Texas. The other state that the US should Loose is Alabama.

Not a knock on Houston and their medical services, but it's not #1. Even if it was, there's still plenty of highly-skilled doctors across the country.

Why? Have you ever been to either? Why would you want to "loose" either?

I was going to say Canada could sell you wheat but you want to sell Canada too. What would Florida do without it's annual speedo wearing senior citizens from Canada?
