Some time ago the "Doonesbury" comic strip, in making fun of Bush's
claim of Texas residence, focused on Texas' minimal requirements
for claiming residence.  A mock application was printed in the strip
that just indicated an "intent" to live in Texas. I don't recall
anything in the news stories in the local papers that contradicted
that premise though there were news stories about that episode of
the strip.

So what is the story?  Can anyone in another state become a Texas
resident for the following year onwards by sending a letter by
Dec 31st to John Sharp, or his successor, indicating an intent to
move to Texas? What other steps would be necessary?  Especially
in the case of someone genuinely considering the *possibility*
of relocation.

If this has been hashed before, could someone please e-mail me
any saved postings.
