Probably coz he didn't understand the question, let alone the answer.

Question - Which country has the most pyramids in the world.

Neville

[Varley]

Are these the Mayan?

[Hawkey01]

Varley,

Sorry not them.

Neville

[Makko]

Then Mexico, Neville. Now many years ago, they estimated that just to make an initial survey of identified and probable sites would take 54 years! Using LIDAR, more and more sites are being confirmed.

[Malcolm G]

I’ve cheated - looked it up.
Yes there are hundreds of pyramids in Mesoamerica but the question asked for Country, and it’s not Mexico.

[Hawkey01]

Dave,

Sorry not Mexico - although that was my original thought!

Malcolm,

Glad you did not let the cat out of the bag as the saying goes.

I saw a large number of orange and white pyramids on the M6 once. When I slowed down I realised they were traffic cones.

You know that there are no actual storage depots for traffic cones. When you see lines of cones not apparently protecting anything - They are just in storage until needed.

I telephoned the Traffic Cone Hotline once, but the auto receptionist said there were no cones available to take my call as they were all out on the roads.

As no more takers I will reveal the answer.

SUDAN.

Neville

SUDAN.

Neville

[Jupiter71]

Interesting they are known as "Nubian" Pyramids, the former Tribal class ships take note

[Makko]

Sudan!? I am impressed.

Two more to hopefully interest you!

Which US state has the busiest airport in the world and the city name? An extra point if you know the name of the airport.

Which is the only continent where coffee grows naturally?

Neville

[Malcolm G]

Part one - pass.

Part two - Probably Africa, on the basis that Coffea Arabica despite the name grows in Ethiopia.

[Dartskipper]

Reference busiest Airport, I suggest Atlanta, Georgia.

(At one time Chicago O'Hare, Illinois, was regarded as the busiest, but that may have been for International flights I think.)

[John Rogers]

Atlanta, georgia. Usa.

[Varley]

I would have guessed Africa for the bean too. No idea for the airport although USA would be the shoe-in starting point.

[Jupiter71]

Mè thinks Bolivia or Kenya

[Jupiter71]

Should have read the question better continent not country - I say South America.

Airport - Atlanta

[Hawkey01]

Thanks all.

Airport correct - Atlanta Georgia - it is now called Hartsfield-Jackson.

Coffee - correct Africa.
