You said -- "well, what can one expect from the cult of death, texas style?"
You got me there. I'm not sure what is going on -- in a "cult of death". Please elaborate.
As far as I can tell, this represents scientists from a large area, even though it happens happens to involve a Texas location for this conference. I would, personally, that it involves scientists from all over.
But, please do tell me what you're referring to.

"cult of death" is my preferred term for what most refer to as the "culture of death."
In the olden days, it used to be said that anything associated with Texas was "big;" and it became a charicature.
Certainly a death wish for 90% of the population qualifies as over-the-top big, as such things go.
Make sense now?
/demolished joke.
