This makes me feel somewhat ignorant, but only one of the guesses has no reasoning behind it:
o3, k2, o2, q4, n3, l5, b6, k2, l4, l3
1. o3 - if it's l3 then I am sad.
2. k2.
3. Pretty poorly defined, but I'm going to go for q6 for Lake Eyre. If canyons and stuff count then NFI.
4. Currently m3, I believe.
5. d3!
6. r2.
7. q4, I will say. Would not be surprised if it is in fact r4.
8. Pretty sure it's around the intersection of j1/k1/j2/k2.
9. f4.
10. Let's go with m3 again!
Ooh, I like this kind of quiz!
1.o3 (Mt Everest)
2.p4 (Singapore)
3.l3 (Dead Sea, Israel/Jordan)
4.m3 (Dubai)
5.d3 (Mexico City)
6.r2 (Tokyo?)
7.t3 (Mariana Trench)
8.k2 (Switzerland)
9.l5 (East Africa somewhere?)
10.o2 (Ulaan Bataar?)
Aw hell, I neglect the Reader for a month and you go on a tear.
1 03
2 k2, with about 40 asterisks
3 l2/3
4 this week? Probably m3
5 r2, or d3, etc.
6 G'wan, you've got a definitive answer for THAT? Let's say o3, asterisk asterisk asterisk.
7 Ooh! ...r2?
8 k1/2?
9 f5ish
10 Right this second it's apparently Mesa (Phoenix, basically), or d2. I'd have to guess the hottest average town is Khartoum or N'djanema -- let's cut a caper and say k4.
