::The word "Metro" has a European (French) origin[http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/metro], so any system called "Metro" would have a European name. --[[User:Colapeninsula|Colapeninsula]] ([[User talk:Colapeninsula|talk]]) 09:15, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
: It is this one, right? [http://www.worldatlas.com/geoquiz/previous.htm] In that case, the answer was [[New Amsterdam, Guyana]].

Reading the clues, their answer, and the explanations, I definitely stand by my previous statements of "horribly under-specified" and "many correct answers" /[[User:Coffeeshivers|Coffeeshivers]] ([[User talk:Coffeeshivers|talk]]) 17:36, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
