Wink Apparently Austin is not in the US

For your Friday amusement. Go to: https://www.united.com/web/en-US/con...s/default.aspx

Notice that when you look at the list of US clubs (by clicking on "U.S", yes it is missing the second period) that Austin is not listed. If you click on "All" then Austin is listed.

Now, this begs the question. If Austin isn't in the US, then where is it? It's not listed under "Europe", "Latin America & Caribbean", or "Pacific". Does this mean I no longer have to pay US income taxes? Perhaps United is asserting that Texas was illegally annexed in 1845, but if that is true, then why do they list the Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio clubs under US? These are important questions and I demand immediate answers!
