This is an issue that seems to be picking up allot of steam lately. Basically, Georgia is wanting to have have their border moved up a bit so they can have access to water from the Tennessee River because they (primarily Atlanta) are going through a drought. As a resident of Tennessee I think the whole thing is crazy but I travel to Georgia allot and many of the people I know down there thinks it's nuts too. Evidently there are quite a few that don't see it that way because it's becoming a huge issue. Is a state supposed to redraw it's borders every time a neighboring state is in trouble? Sounds like B.S. to me.
