The only people arguing over whether Australia is a continent are the ones that think that man hasn't left the planet. Since we're talking about the coolest looking planet from space, they don't count ;-P Cheers, Tom Archer Author - Inside C#, Visual C++.NET Bible

IOW you concur that not only is Oz a continent, it's a damn fine looking one and bears no relationship to deformed sheep. right? right?? cheers, Chris Maunder Rub your belly and pat your head simultaneously. Sometimes that helps me make sense of things - Jon Sagara

I've always wondered where the cutoff between island and continent falls. If there's water all the way round it, then it's an island - surely? (even if in this case, europe, africa and asia would all be one island) -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

I just thought you all should know that ... Africa is the best looking continent from space. ;P Anyone care to dispute that? Cheers, Simon "Sign up for a chance to be among the first to experience the wrath of the gods.", Microsoft's home page (24/06/2002)
Personally, I think the continent of Atlantis is a hands down winner, just from the outline of the perimiter alone. Being underwater of course, from space you have to look for it by the shadows in the ocean, but it's nonetheless a stunning sight.

Personally, after those four little peninsulas sunk off the southern coast, I don't think it bears any resemblance to a sheep at all... Chistopher Duncan Author - The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World (Apress)

Not at all....but when you get up close -- like being there -- well lets just say my last trip there made me realize its the only continent I want to avoid!! I've been to South Africa and Egypt. South Africa was very interesting, but I've heard its much more dangerous now than it was 10 years ago when I went. Egypt was pretty much the worst country I've ever been to! Yes I went to the valley of the Kings & Queens, the British Museum, the Pyramids.....but I've also been in the country side. The whole place just seemed like it was out of a movie. I can't put into words what I was thinking exactly, but something like -- "I've only got two more weeks left" occured pretty often! Hope I haven't made anyone too mad....;(

It bears a striking resemblance to a sheep, hence it's popularity with the denizens of CP. I Drowned Schroedinger's Stupid Cat!
