I've noticed a strong surge of new members from Texas lately, though most of them have not listed where in Texas they are located. Odd, considering it's the second largest state. From where I am to Houston is a good 10 hour drive.
Anyway.. let's get a list going for people to contact for local jams and just for people to talk coffee with from time to time.
If your city/metroplex is not listed, please add it, and list your name under it.

D/FW Jasontp (Jason Pollard) I don't know what his sn is, but Zach Pearson has posted a couple times here and he's in D/FW
We'll bring you the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat-and, because we've got soccer highlights, the sheer pointlessness of a zero-zero tie. You're watching Sports Night on CSC, so stick around.
Since you're in Ft. Worth, you might drop by Panther City Coffee. Steve Watkins is the owner/roastmaster, and Jason Pollard is a barista there (both members here, both great people). They hosted a DFW barista jam quite awhile ago (December, actually) where we all had a great time talking coffee, pulling shots, and just being around like-minded individuals in general.
Definitely worth checking out. If you're interested in home-roasting, Steve is the guy to ask for advice from locally.
