When I use traceroute, I often see abbreviations in the hostnames along the route, such as "ge", "so", "ic", "gw", "bb" etc. I can guess "bb" means backbone.
Does anyone know what any these strings abbreviate, or know any other common abbreviations?

Re.search(r'\b[a-z]{2}\b', subject, re.I)
it will find double-letter names of towns, though
A simple and reliable way is to have all the states listed:
states = ['IA', 'KS', 'UT', 'VA', 'NC', 'NE', 'SD', 'AL', 'ID', 'FM', 'DE', 'AK', 'CT', 'PR', 'NM'... .
