I would open the dialogue with a resounding "NO!!!", then close it, hopefully forever. It's a stupid idea that only serves to divide the races.

Rosemary, you just described a good part of The Houston Heights. I thought if any part of Houston had Sears houses, the Heights would. I tried looking for them using your book, but it was a hopeless cause. If you are serious about coming to Houston, you might contact the Houston Heights Association. I
