Thanks Texas, we are busting at the seams here in Baton Rouge and will probably pop. We (BR) really don't like being the largest city in La.

Get used to it. Nobody ever thought Houston could be the largest city in Texas until a hurricane destroyed Galveston in 1900. Common sense told those people a century ago to move 45 miles inland. I hope common sense prevails today in Louisiana, but there seems to be a lot of political pressure to rebuild New Orleans. Baton Rouge seems the logical place to rebuild.
