Very nice article helped a lot thanks!
Twice in the article above, Mount Kilimanjaro is stated to be located in West Africa. Why has no-one corrected this? Has it been left in as a joke? Othe than this glaring error, the article is pretty good. Why not correct the one thing that is guaranteed to make most readers scratch their heads in wonder?
Corrected. Thanks a lot! :)
