  • It has never had an NHL team but had the WHA Houston Aeros from 1972-78.
  • Houston is bigger than Tokyo -- Just another way of sticking it to Japan. The most TEXAN city on earth. Houston is bigger than 87 countries and richer than 376.
  • Houston is the largest city in Texas with a population of over 2 Million. There is a major commercial port, Business, Finance, Science and technology are important there. Texas is important for developing manned space flight. Houston is moderate, but quite liberal for a city in Texas.
  • Houston was founded on August 30, 1836. The city was incorporated on June 5, 1837, and named after then-President of the Republic of Texas, Sam Houston. It was Texas' capital from then until 1839 when it moved to Austin.

  • Home of Big Oil!!! Maybe you can grill some affluent people there! ;-) Seriously, though; Houston is a great place and by the time you get down there, the weather should be really nice. I don't think you can avoid a stop in Houston and visits to Enron, Halliburton, KBR, ExxonMobil, etc.

I don't think you can avoid a stop in Houston and visits to Enron, Halliburton, KBR, ExxonMobil, etc. * I believe Matthew Mullenweg (), creator of WordPress, lives in Houston so you may be able to catch an interview. * Kinky Friedman () is running an interesting campaign for governor here in Texas. He has a strong environmental platform. You could also try to meet up with the Democrat running for governer here, Chris Bell (). I think either should try to make time for a journalist travelling cross-country on an environmental crusade. * The Pacifica radio affliate in Houston, KPFT (), could help you organize an event. They are very progressive. You could at least record a PSA for them. * We have a nice inner-city arboretum () where we have some great naturalists for you to meet. I'm trying to introduce them to the idea of video blogging or putting their video training resources on-line using something like FireAnt. * Some cool folk art in the downtown area: the Flower Man's House () and the Orange Show (). Both feature inspiring stories of common folk working for public good, with some potential health/environmental messages. And, if wacky's your thing, you can't miss the Art Car Museum (). Come to Houston, Amanda! * The Park People () advocate for green space here in Houston, the sprawling fourth-largest city in the United States. * The Houston Ship Channel () is gigantic. There's a free ferryboat tour () Tuesday through Sunday, once or twice a day. Or, if you'd like more greenery and fewer depressing vistas, try a canoe trip down Buffalo Bayou () -- you'd never think you were in the middle of a big city! * The Beer Can House (), Art Car Museum (), and other sites that can be found on Road Show America - Houston are worth a trip to Houston each on their own.
