Seven is greater than six. Hopefully that will also hold true for Seven McGee, but equal would be acceptable.

I have lived in both Lubbock and Amarillo. They are pretty much the same, however there is one major difference, the stockyards south of Amarillo. When then wind was blowing out of the southwest from the Hereford stockyards, we would open the door for our cats to go outside. They would take one sniff of the "aroma" and come right back into the house.
