...spaces. They are also separated by one of the most enduring municipal rivalries since Athens slandered Sparta. "Houston," says Dallas Mayor Jack Evans of the grittier rival city, "doesn't wear well." Besides, add Dallas chauvinists, Houstonians are the ugly Americans of Texas. Dallasites, responds Houston Post Columnist Lynn Ashby, "are the Swiss of Texas." What is more, says Houston Businessman Lan Bentsen, Dallas residents "have no sense of humor...
