Re: Twenty questions, round 358
I like this guess. I had looked into Antarctic births and the earliest was in the 70's, I wasn't sure what other unusual "first births" to look into

CLARIFICATION QUESTION for the QM:
Do you consider "North America" and "South America" to describe the whole of the continental Americas? Or would you regard "Central America" as a separate continental territory and therefore not yet asked about?

Re: Twenty questions, round 358
Central America is a part of North America (at least for the purposes of this game). This person was not born in Central America.Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Tue Aug 06, 2024 2:27 pmCLARIFICATION QUESTION for the QM:
