      Why can't I vote for Tristan La Cunha?
      Within weeks they'll be re-opening the shipyards
      And notifying the next of kin
      Once again...

        Tristan da Cunha et al. have been lobbed together with Easter Island for practicality reasons.

          I was planning to go to Burkina Faso at some point...

          I think of those, Easter Island wins on practicality, but Petropavlovsk wins on distance-from-nearest-Apolytonner.

            One of my friends actually visited Easter Island a couple of years ago on his round-the-world trip, he'd been to Australia and stopped over in Tahiti and Easter Island on his way to South America.

            He told me that during his 2-day stay on Easter Island, one afternoon he was going to a store in the island village to buy some stamps, and he overheard a couple outside the store talking in Danish. He approached them, and it turned out they were from a town 12 km from where both my friend and I grew up.

            I mean that would be almost like Neil Armstrong having bumped into the girl next door in the Sea of Tranquility.

                In terms of scale, isn't it more like Neil Armstong bumping into a fellow american in the Sea of Tranquility? like Buzz Aldrin, for instance

                    Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso - noone knows where it is or wants to find out

                    Petropavlovsk, Kamchatka, Russia - sounds intersting. we could also visit a little chapel, drink eat and be merry

                    Nuuk, Greenland - i'm not a reindeer
                    Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia - sure and boost tourism
                    Easter Island, Chile - very attractive choice
                    Ulan Bator, Mongolia - only horses and plains there, too far
                    Perth, Australia - why?
                    Tikrit, Iraq - somatic integrity is important so no
                    That place that sells chili just outside Caracas, Venezuela - sure venezuela, say hi to chavez too, buy some t-shirts
                    U.S. Top Secret Banana Research Facility - that sounds far too dangerous

                      Yes.

                      But wild exaggeration sometimes works better.

                      Maybe next time it'll work.

                        Nice display of the right spirit there.

                        For explanations of the inclusion of Perth, I refer to molly bloom's most excellent testimony earlier.

                          So is anyone going to find out where that first place is, or are we all just that lazy?
