Got 24/25. Only missed Honolulu. Miami shows up on the list twice. Is the second one really Atlanta? Houston? Baltimore? I guess I'll click through the source and find out because I'm curious.

KC shouldn't be accepted. We aren't going to accept JB for Johannesburg either, are we?

You had better type "United Kingdom Of Great Britain And Northern Ireland" in full every time, none of this "UK" stuff.

Ditto "Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte".
