both pan and mueen claim to have got to level 11. (Ok, I am sure I could
get there too in my second try, so I won't attempt it. Besides I have to

Helpful housekeeping hints:
Check your feather pillows for holes
before putting them in the washing machine.

Here's a point worth noting...
This appears to be some kind of cylindrical projection, and such
projections distort distances at extreme lattitudes. So it's probably
"harder" to accurately hit a place that's near the equator, because it's
scaled smaller.
