More than can or should be said in a ComBox based on my 15 years of living in the Metroplex.
I understand things may get better under the present Ordinary, but I have yet to see any evidence of it.
At present, I reside in the Diocese of Fort Worth which, while not much better on average, has a few more islands of sanity than Dallas.
