Huh? I never said anything about the last two—even though Wednesday was Texas Independence Day. There's a reason I live in Chicago now.
I was just poking fun at the idea that states as big as California or Texas could be characterized as all one kind of scenery, the way you can (maybe) Vermont. If I say "Colorado," you have a picture in your mind that is probably not the prairie ranchlands of La Junta, the sand dunes of the San Luís Valley, or the badlands of the Yampa Plateau.
