Okay guys, if Arkansas is pronounced Arkan"saw", then why isn't Kansas pronounced Kan"saw"? Or vice versa. If Kansas is Kansas then why isn't Arkansas pronounced the way it's spelled. It's sooo confusing...

A truely sad fact is that some moron in the state senate is trying to pass a bill that clarifies the possesive spelling of Arkansas and want the possesive to read Arkansas's rather than the current Arkansas'. Anyone who's taken 8th grade english knows that a word ending in an "s" only requires a ' at the end to make it possesive.
The shock on the state seems to be that the senate is wasting time on crap like that when we have real issues to deal with.
