Indeed, Dallas really grew, you can even see the difference from the opening shots of the "Dallas" TV show that was filmed in 1979 thru the 1980's. The 1979 shots show the Dallas skyline as rather small and no really tall skyscrapers- Today Dallas is a world class city, actually Dallas & Fort Worth are one huge jumbo sized city, all tied together under the name "MetroPlex".

Yep, rolls off the tongue better than 'T-Towne'...

Nothing wrong with nick-names, look at the business white pages of the Tulsa phone book and see all the comapnies that call themselfs "T-Town" this and "T-Town" that- theres a big list of 'em. Dallas is nicknamed "The Big D" Fort Worth is offten called "CowTown". :o

I noticed on a bike ride Saturday morning that Norman still has at least two of these in service, or at least looking as if they are in service.  One is outside the high school baseball stadium and the other I saw somewhere on the east side of Norman.  If anyone has hopes of owning one some day you might pay attention to government surplus auctions.
