National Reading Conference in Austin Texas this year
and so I have done a bit of research about Texas.
Found this video in the New York Times online.
Wonder if the NRC people will affect the Texans at all. I am looking forward to attending… I understand Austin is really different from the rest of the state.
A hotbed of radicalism, apparently, unique in the state. I met Simon Bird aka Birdworks’ mate Andrew aka chumplink a couple of years ago when they were touring the UK. He’s an Austinian. Sounds like an interesting place.

I met someone from the Information Department at that Uni in Second Life yesterday, at a SL parallel conference. Just thought I’d throw that in to sound cool.
