NEWSFLASH: The US adds two new states; States will be known as "Hawaii" and "Alaska"


So, I think that Roberts' suggestion is 99% ridiculous. But I agree 1% because people are pretty stupid where geography is concerned. Every day at work I ask people "do you have any plans to travel outside of the US in the next two years?" At least three times a week I get a yes answer explaining "we're going to Hawaii." Occasionally I get an Alaska variation. Come on, people.

Yikes! And I've met folks who thought Montana was a Canadian province.
