Re: OT: Strange future for down-under?
It isn't that ridiculous if you think about it. Hawaii and Alaska are states and they're non-contiguous with the other 48 states. Texas was an independent, sovereign nation before joining. There is no language barrier. Cultural differences are not a barrier (see Hawaii again). The US allows plenty of latitude in its state laws, so local legislation is not much of a barrier.
It's comes down to holding a national referendum and asking everyone, 'do we or don't we' ?
