	good idea. i bet nepal could make it onto the list if they had good weather stations and kept comprehensive records, considering the southern lowlands get pretty hot in the summer, while the himalayas are freezing cold year-round. same story with pakistan and india.

	Please correct the extreme high for Argentina: 49.1 C (120.4 F) or 48.9 C (120.0 F) according to different sources. @newenglander: you're right about weather stations. Argentina holds the record for the highest temperature in South America, but on Dec. 11th, 1905 when the 48.9 C were recorded near the tripoint Argentina-Paraguay-Bolivia, surely in western Paraguay the temperature went higher. It only happened that Argentina had a weather station in the area and Paraguay hadn't one.

	Great! I thought this would be a good idea for a quiz and did some research. Glad to see you create this. I agree re: the weather stations too. I suppose the caveat is 'the highest temperatures accurately recorded by man.' By the way, Antarctica would squeeze into 5th place on this list - 103.8C range.
