> Texas is absurdly large -- there's 800+ miles between the Louisiana border and El Paso, at the western edge.

California is 1000+ miles north-south, albeit only 560 miles east-west.

And Alaska is several Texas' in size.

To the chagrin of Texans, were Alaska to be split in half, Texas would be the third-largest state ;-)

The existence of OTHER very large states doesn't make Texas NOT large.
