Default New Houston Speed Limit??? WTF??

So I'm listening to the radio at work and they are saying starting April 18th the Houston area will drop the speed limits on the free way to 50 mph... really?? can anyone else confirm this???

They are saying they are doing it to reduce Houston's Carbon foot print? Since when did all the tree huggers from Austin move to Houston ????

I think it's to just increase the coffers in Houston!!!

DEEEEEAN and Rog! I can only take morning FM radio in small doses, but I generally like Rod Ryan and D&R.

W&J - meh. Too political most of the time.
Roulah and Ryan - Wannabe valley girl and guy who won't admit he's gay.
Mix - Hate most of the music they play

Most mornings, it's CDs or Matt & Adam.

I remember several years ago when Brittany Spears was still hot, 97.1 had a DJ duo do a April Fools joke that said her plane had gone down and she was dead, etc etc... I don't think they survived the blow out that came from that skit and I'm pretty sure that's what killed their show at the time. It was absolutely hilarious though.

I believe it was Kramer and Twitch. I also believe it was both Britney and Justin dying. They were both canned soon after. 'Talk about a really long time ago.
