You don't know the half of it. I am reviewing social sciences texts,
and so far the one I read that was Texas approved in some areas seem
very lacking when compared to books that were not on that list. Mind
you, that is my subjective opinion, but hey most areas of psychology
depend on the theory of evolution for instance. The texas approved
text skipped over that, and in doing so made a hash out of the basis
of perception, psychobiology, neuropsych etc.

I've been to Houston a few times, the longest was when I was
conducting school system assessments for this federal grant when (I
age myself here...) Bush was governor of Texas. so as you see I go
back dislikiing him from a long way back.

The thing about Austin is that its a university town as well. That
typically makes such a place far more liberal than its surrounds.
