I can well believe it (hazy idea of the rest of the world).

When I visited MIT (yes, the well-known uni in Cambridge, Massachusetts)a group of students in the main entrance hall were offering a free coffee and coffee roll (like a danish pastry) to anyone who knew what the capital of Australia was (not a small unknown country really).

Obviously to a Commonwealth citizen the answer was a piece of cake (or coffee roll).

They were amazed and congratulated me heartily when I gave the correct answer...

I wonder if GW knows the answer ???
