		The New York Times is half-tickled, half-alarmed to discover that the Republic of Texas -- you may recall them from the militia days -- is still active.

		In the LNF publication archives at http://libertariannation.org/a/index.html, Hammer's two articles about the Republic of Texas are one of the few LNF articles not available online, perhaps due to a desire for Hammer to distance himself.
