been there for 5 days and never saw the sky or the sun over the course of 5 days. Oh and you can almost taste the air.

I guess this means that vegetarians should plan on wearing dust masks while in Houston, if they're serious about not consuming any meat.

Oh man, and I thought L.A. had bad air and no sky...

That's why I'm glad a live in the suburbs to the west of Houston. Its not too bad out here in Katy.

But the barbeque is so good here. I highly recommend everyone swing by Goode company BBQ when they're here if they can find time.

You'll miss the atmospheric poyunsaturated fatty acids when you go back home. ;)

And I quote Ted Nugent (http://www.salon.com/mwt/sust/2002/06/11/nuge/), "Vegetarians are cool. All I eat are vegetarians." But if you're seriously into kill-free cuisine, there are lots of Indian restaurants here.
