In the 3ACV13 episode "Bendin' In The Wind" It's possible to see a partial map of U.S. in 3000. Titles on the map are:

New New York Sylvania Penn Republic Washington A.C. West Virginia East West Virginia eHIO 'Ucky XORegon Muontana User ID: aho Wy(omega)ing 24-Bit Colorado Nukevada (with skull and bones next to it) HighCal LoCal

I'd like to complete this maps with the absent names of states. English is not my mother tongue and it's difficult for me imagine the other names. I thinks some like this: Textas = Texts or Delaware = Dell Hardware

CAN YOU HELP ME TO COMPLETE THIS MAP?

The complete list of US states is: Alabama Alaska Arizona Arkansas California = HighCal, LoCal Colorado = 24 Bit Colorado Connecticut Delaware Florida Georgia Hawaii Idaho = User ID:aho Illinois Indiana Iowa Kansas Kentucky = 'Ucky Louisiana Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota Mississippi Missouri Montana = Muontana Nebraska Nevada = Nukevada New Hampshire New Jersey = New New Jersey New Mexico New York = New New York North Carolina North Dakota Ohio = eHio Oklahoma Oregon = XORegon Pennsylvania = Penn Republic,Sylvania Rhode Island South Carolina South Dakota Tennessee Texas Utah = Human farm (alien type) Vermont Virginia = West Viginia, East West Virginia Washington DC = Washington AC Washington = Washintron West Virginia Wisconsin Wyoming = Wy(Omega)ing

Thank for all.

Here's my go at it. Mine follow the double arrows (dubaleros?).

See you in a thousand years!

Pretty good! Better than that other guy's, anyway. I still think it should be I/Owa, though...

Thanks. I might have used I/Owa if the Futurama writers hadn't used Wy(omega)ing, which I think is somewhat similar and somewhat lame. I would change it to Wyoming the Merciless even though that's not as punchy. The rest of their choices are good, although I'm not sure whether XORegon is supposed to be a play on XOberon (ORegedit instead? Oregon Spengler? meh). I suppose some of mine were obscure, too.

XOR is one of the basic logic operations on which computers are based. There's AND, OR, NOT, and XOR which is "exclusive OR". Such as:

If A=1 OR B=1 then (whatever)

A normal OR operation will accept either condition being true to validate the result. But it was also accept BOTH conditions being true. Both A and B can equal 1 at the same time to trigger the the result. But an XOR says only one can be true to proceed. That is, if A=1 then B must not equal 1 to fit the conditions, and vice versa.

And how is Wy(ohm)ing similar to I/Owa?

Ah, I see; thanks for the explanation. That's probably cleverer than Oregon Spengler (especially since mine would perpetuate bad pronunciation). ^_^

It was Wy(omega)ing, wasn't it? I always understood the brand name Iomega to be a reference to I/O from a peripheral device. If the joke lay elsewhere, I didn't get it.

Google for Ohm's law.

Sure, but the gag was Wy(omega)ing, not Wy(ohm)ing, at least according to several episode capsules sprinkled over the internet, not to mention the authority of Giscardo Panzavolta. It still sounds like a play on Iomega to me.

Oh my. So the gag is, stepwise: Wyoming > Wy(ohm)ing > Wy(omega)ing > laugh

I feel that all the fun I've sucked out of that joke by belaboring it could fill a hearing aid battery. Well, thanks for walking me through all that, David Litchman and LooseChanj, despite my resistance. It looks like I'm 0 for 2 on the tough ones. I won't even ask what Matthew Miller is talking about.

He's correcting the C so it meets the ANSI standard.

Well, you did ask... Wait a minute. You *didn't* ask! Feel free to ignore this message :-)
