Better example (Score:2)

There are eight states in the US whose names start with the letter "M". Can you name them all with their two-letter abbreviations?

Without going to http://en.wikipedia.org/ [wikipedia.org] or some such, of course.

  Do you want the fips codes, too? It's really sad when you can spout off fips codes as easily as abbreviations. Occupational hazard, I guess.

    For the 8 states abbrevs, I'll guess MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MS, and MT.
    
    For the 8 FIPS codes, I'll guess M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M7 and M8. :-)
