The rules of harmonising

Why don't you get answers of the form:

 ('Wisconsin', 'Kory New') 
   <-> ('Wisconsin', 'New Kory') 
   <-> ('Wisconsin', 'New York') 
   <-> ('Wisconsin', 'Wen Kory') 
   <-> ('York New', 'Wisconsin')

Off the top because Wisconsin was one of the original states. Or put another way ('Wisconsin', 'New Kory') -> ('Wisconsin', 'New Kory') - the new pair doesn't count as "two other U.S. States" --Dgamey 11:36, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
