I must say, I **hate** drop-downs for the state postal abbreviation. The
vast majority of the time, when people are filling in a form where they
need a postal abbreviation, they are either:

a. putting their own address and know the abbreviation
b. filling in an address they've been given, which has the code
c. working at a job where they have to fill out many such forms so that
they get to know the codes or can be expected to look up the ones they
don't know

Get rid of the evil state abbreviation drop-down menu. And kill the guy
who thought it was a good idea. And make his next of kin choose the
manner of his burial from a drop-down list.
