re: Are people from Texas "Southerners"?

Texas is not the South although there are a lot of cultural similarities. Dallas and Houston are huge sprawling metro areas with people from all over the country and all over the world. Houston i/m/o has a truley international aspect to it. In adddition to the Hispanic influence, there are a lot of Asians there and Dallas as well. Austin has more in common with Berkeley than it does with any other SEC college town with the exception of maybe Athens. Fort Worth feels very "Western" and after FW, civilization basically ends.

I will tell you the one thing that bonds all Texans, ever through our vastly different geographies and cultures: high school football.
