I'm from Houston and the local FReepers are friends of mine. We've FReeped a lot of Commies in the past. (A.N.S.W.E.R. rallies, Indymedia events, etc.) We always have some sort of get-together when I get home. They're good peeps.
I was in the Dallas and later the Austin areas in the middle to later 1990’s, but am in Florida and likely to stay here. if you ever are coming this way, let us know on the Florida state board, we are a pretty active group too.
