I heard that tnhey would just drop NY and California so no new stars are needed... Scott

no. we're going to drop Southern California. (doesn't help with the number of stars, but it does as far as water is concerned ). and we are going to combine the South into one stat…

hey i'd vote for that, elzinat...

woohoo!(sp?) my thread has gone orange!! I feel more specialer than other people, though still less specialerer than otherer people.

California and Texas should secede from the Union, as that's what seems to happen anyway in most futuristic novels about the US.

This is where it's at.
