I know you Amuhricans used them first, but circular star patterns are too EU-ish nowadays.

Eh, The US will be around in ten years. Don't know about the EU.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

If Fogh really does take over that's about how long I'll give it. :P

Of course.  They're vastly different states.  West Virginia is solidly red, while Virginia now leans ever-so-slightly blue.

West Virginia favored the Republicans in 1863 as well.

Why would anyone take over those middle states?

Solar panels.

I calculated once if you covered Oklahoma in solar panels you could power the world.  I think we should do it.

Cut the US into 50 equal states based on population and demographics, then give each state a set of professional sports teams.  You'd have the East Coast Urban Douchebags versus the Rustbelt Whiny Poors.

Oh, wait, we're not trying to start a Civil War?

That map is kinda weird. Why is Mexico giving up California and Arizona?
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

This map is more realistic I think.

Because the guy did a geometric optimization with no concept of reality behind the map (or no concept of reality, period).
