El Paso as we know is on a different grid. -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 17:38 7
- That is correct. West Texas, a bit of the panhandle, and a sliver of East Texas close to Arkansas/Louisiana. -- nm - IAmQale Feb 18, 17:41 6
  - Confession: I have NEVER been clear on what part of TX is the panhandle, because there is more than one straight part. -- nm - loosilu Feb 18, 17:50 5
    - It is the part that’s close to Oklahoma’s. - IAmQale Feb 18, 19:07
    - I always assumed it was the top, rectangular bit -- nm - zork Feb 18, 17:52 3
      - That's a top hat, Oklahoma has a pan handle -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 18, 17:54 2
        
        Correct. FL does also. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 18, 18:14 1
        
        I like to think of it as a cock ring -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 18, 20:09
