	I wonder if that much time is really necessary.

	I'm confused about the inclusion of Canada. It seems that Canada has only two coastlines: the Pacific coastline between Alaska and Washington, and the Arctic/Atlantic coastline between Alaska and Maine. Perhaps I'm missing something?

	@NorwegianSalmon - Time cut in half. @zifyoip - Point Roberts is a tiny area in Washington that interrupts Canada's coastline.

	Nice to see my comments on another quiz inspired this one!

	Oh, yeah, Point Roberts. Thanks for explaining that. In that case, shouldn't the third column for Canada say that the coastline is split by "United States, United States, United States" (once for the lower 48, once for Alaska, and once for Point Roberts)?

	canuckster19:	Nov 15th, 2010 at 06:54 GMT		2 points
	^ No because if you start at the Southwestern most point and go clockwise it's never interrupted by the lower 48, vise versa going from the southeastern most and heading counter clockwise. (Note technically Point Roberts is lower 48 as it is a part of Washington, but I understand what you are saying.)

	@zifyoip - For each of these, I left out the biggest group of countries that split it. In order to make that coastline continuous, you'd have to walk the entirety of South America. Likewise, I left out the enormous chunk of Afro-Eurasia that "splits" Russia a fourth time (from North Korea all the way around India, the Middle East, Africa, up around Turkey, and finally to Georgia.) So for each country with three coastlines on here, I only included the two smaller splits.

	Yeah, I see, that makes sense.

	A good quiz, although I think 2 minutes would give a greater challenge.
