>BTW It's amusing how Americans always have to suffix a city name with the state. I guess it's because so many are named after European cities but it's unlikely that someone who says "I'm driving down to Philadelphia PA" means he's gonna cross the ocean (and I don't think there IS another Philadelphia, in the US or anywhere else? :-)

Actually, there are several cities in more than one state. Without trying hard I could probably come up with a dozen. Granted they won't always be major cities, but the names are duplicated.

And if you tell somebody from Mississippi that you are "driving down to Philadelphia" you won't be going to PA.
