	Good quiz, but very hard. I tried Aconcagua and it wasn't accepted, and that's when I knew this was going to be an impossible "Name the Himalayas" quiz.

	Pik Ismail Somoni should beat out Pik Lenina...it's nearly 1000 feet taller, and fairly notable since it was the tallest mountain in the Soviet Union.

	I think that generic names as Mount, Volcano, Peak, etc., shouldn't be considered for the alphabetical order. Mount Wood is correctly included in the W. But then, Volcán ( = volcano) San José begins with S, and Pik Lenina ( = Lenin's Peak) begins with L... supposing that the name wasn't changed after the fall of Communism.

	@zifyoip: I also tried Aconcagua first, not only because I'm from Argentina, but because I'm more accustomed to read heights in meters. When Aconcagua didn't work, I made a quick mental calculation 26,500 x .3 = that's roughly 8,000 meters, so I also realized that it should be something in the Himalayas.

	If you're counting Ismoil Somoni Peak under "P" and not "I", than Mt. Foraker should be listed under "M." Weak quiz.
