- croes 4y agoJust to be sure, you do realize this is about Austria not Australia?
- alberth 4y agoLol. My mistake. Thanks for pointing that out to me. I just updated my post. Whoops.
- quickthrower2 4y agoMade the same mistake at first (using old glasses prescription is my excuse...). Felt like an Aussie government kinda thing to do as well, so it made sense. On second thoughts they probably wouldn't need the court order ha ha.
- marginalia_nu 4y agoAustria, Australia; Sweden, Switzerland; and worst of all Colombia, The District of Columbia (which isn't a district but a state), British Columbia (which isn't in Britain), also a small Australian Columbia (which is actually in Australia). I feel we need to get someone on clearing up this mess of confusingly named localities.
