Town names[edit]

The Dab'd names are well chosen. Is it possible to imagine a scenario where a user knows the name of the town, but doesn't know the state? Hard, but possible. Could the trouble a user who knows a town name (but not the applicable state) is put to by the absence of town names outweigh the distraction every user would experience if only the hick town (I mean Houston, since the desired airport is obviously TX without having "Houston" on the pg to confirm it) were excluded? Not damn likely.
(For the record, Ellington is a bedroom town -- even tho you're likely to literally go thru Podunk to get there from Hartford -- and its name is unlikely to be known if you don't know what state your airport is in. Of course i suppose i'm reckless in making similar assumptions about Lewisburg, Tennessee....)
