On our drive from Dallas to western Texas, we saw miles and miles of wind turbines like the ones I took a picture of. Often, in the same fields were active oil wells, and it occurred to us that Texas has all the energy bases covered--oil, gas, coal, hydro, solar, and wind. If Texas ever seceded from the US, they could probably be very self-sufficient, from energy to farming, to ranching. Now I know why you "don't mess with Texas."
