a site in Austin to conduct evaluative research

Martin Dillon (OCLC), Tim Sineath (U of Ky), Dianne McAfee Hopkins (U of WI)
and Terry Weech (U of IL) assessing Texas Chili

Among the art on the wall, the original Texas reference desk disclaimer is found

 

Terry goes to Gov. Bush's house, down the street from the Texas Chili Parlor,
to request that the sign found among the beer signs be declared an historical site

Not finding George W. Bush at home, Terry proceeds to the next most important
person in Texas, Jerry Jeff Walker. But Jerry Jeff is celebrating his Birthday and is
also not available

Terry vows to return to Texas in 2001 for Jerry Jeff's Birthday Party
and to view Art Deco buildings
