Houston Texas Perlmonks;

After several weeks of trying to contact the owner of houston.pm and not being able to, I requested a new HoustonTx pm

I recieved the list today, and cordially invite anyone in the Houston area (including Conroe, Sugarland, Kingswood, etc) to join.

Here is the list address: houston@mail.pm.org

Thank You,

Kristofer Hoch

    Hoo-rah! It's always puzzled me that in a city with more than four million people there has not been a pm club. Could be fun.

    Of course, with such a large geographical area you could conceivably get multiple clubs, such as with the homebrewers around town -- in particular the inner-loop vs those rocket scientist types down there around Clear Lake.

    P.S. Those homebrewing clubs, amusingly, are named The Foam Rangers, the Mashtronauts, and the KGB (Kuykendahl Gran Brewers).

      It's always puzzled me that Houston, a city of more than
      four million people, hasn't got a single bus, not
      a single train, not a single gram of public
      transport available to the public.

      Hmmm...maybe there's a connection between people with
      enough good sense to use Perl, and enough good sense to
      take public transport?

      Microsoft delendum est.
        They're in the process of building a light rail from the Astrodome through the Med center into downtown. There *should* be one from downtown out to Katy, Sugarland, Galveston/Clearlake, Kingswood, and the airport and Woodlands.

        However, our friend Tom Delay has consistently blocked all funding at the federal level for rail in Houston. He's a bit of an ass.

        Perhaps I should turn him into a very small perl script.

        We do have the buses, however, even if finding the schedules and routes can be a pita.

        Matt

        Which houston are you talking about? Houston Texas has more buses that Cops, and we have a lot of cops.

        We also have more buses than Texas has executions
