In my experience, Atlanta and Dallas are always hyper and very curt.

Hmmm...I did my commercial/instrument training at Corsicana, Tx.
(Navarro College) and made regular forrays to Love field (Southwest's
home). I loved the sprawling metropolis, especially at night, and the
tour of downtown Big D approaching Love was always a treat.
I was never under the impression that Dallas was hyper or curt,
although maybe they were and that's all I had experience with at the
time.



I bow to your experience. I've only flown there a few times, and always on
weekdays.


I too fly in the Dallas area and have never had a problem with them. As
Ricky wrote, the "City Tour" at night is great and approach is easy to
work with. Now, one time, I requested clearance Class Bravo to go to a
airport south of Dallas and the contoller said cleared Class Bravo,
expect vectors. He vectored me to my airport. Looking at the map, he
vectored me under and around the Class B ?????.
