Ok, up to this point in the book, I have been ok with the Dallas as the setting. It was mostly in a hotel, so, being familiar with the Hotels in DFW around the 80s, I had a rough idea which one I could image.
But then, they talked about how "Dallas imports water to keep the desert at bay". WHAT?!?!? Dallas is NOT a desert location - it's prairie land. If it is not industrialized, it is grassy fields.
