Wow, that's some nice exposure. I'm not sure who in Houston would give a damn, but we'll see. I never saw so many SUV's sitting in traffic in my life until I started working at JSC. It's frankly a depressing sight. On a sidenote, the NY Times had a piece on San Francisco recycling over 70% of their waste and Houston was mentioned as the worst major city at 2.6% if I recall correctly. Maybe there is a greenie or two in there, but I never met them.
