Tear Jerkers?

First; let me apologize up front... but I would like to tread into unfamiliar territory. I see that Missouri & Kansas has just become a chapter in the Tear Jerkers "Club". Has there been any previous activity to look into a South Central (or Texas and Oklahoma [for example]) chapter?
Just wondering... are there any thoughts out there among South Central folks?
