Oh great and powerful wizard (and yes, I am ignoring the dog and the man behind the curtain ), I have a whole slew of geog' questions for thee...

Why oh why is Kansas City in Missouri?

If there is a West Virginia, whyi is there no East Virginia?

Who decided Kansas and Arkansas are spelled the same and pronounced totally differently?

If the colonists didn't like England, why did they name all their states after it? (New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, New England...)

And lastly, if all the towns in California are named after hispanics, why are hispanics unwelcome in California? At least THEY can pronounce the names!!!

Inquiring daggits wanna know!!! :laugh:
