Me too. Cracow should be an acceptable English language exonym, just like Munich and Havana.

I remember the highest mountain in Europe by associating it with a body joint which bends into the shape of a mountain. Therefore, I couldn't figure out why Mt. Nebrus wasn't accepted. Smacking self severely. Also thrown by the Monaco clue. I was trying to think of some smaller division of France located on the Riviera. I always think of Monaco as simply a country. I think I need another cup of coffee this morning. Good quiz to get me thinking early, though.

Went straight from one of the chain quizzes to this and got thrown for a fairly ridiculous amount of time by question number two. Eventually I realised the letters didn't need to match up.

I always get Elbrus and Erebus mixed up, when I guess one and it's wrong I can never remember the other. Apart from that I thought this was pretty easy.

Whatever happened to Darfur? Is their problem solved, or have we just collectively moved on to other news stories? Does anyone know?

Sadly, it seems the situation there is still grim. This Reuters article from a couple weeks ago indicates that famine has taken hold in at least part of the region, due to the continuing civil war there. This Reuters article from today says that peace talks have begun in Switzerland, but one of the two sides has not agreed to join the talks yet. The final line from the second article calls it "The world's worst humanitarian crisis".

Sorry, I thought it was Saskatoon. Mainly because it's so fun to say. If it makes you feel better, I'm from the states and I can't remember some of the state capitals.
