Ten minute speech full of info, impacts of the lizard listing on Texas State Lands income (loss of 1/4 billion dollars in lease income) and down-home Texas humor.

Thanks for reminding me that the fortunes...or misfortunes... Of Texas and NM are very closely tied, especially where oil and gas production are concerned!

I’m sure that lizard doesn’t recognize the boundaries anyhow! :)
