Re. , may I be the first of many to say nomintive determinism?

Could we have a "How to Say" article with reference to the pronunciation of the name of the Central Asian Republic of Kyrgyzstan

As a follow up to on sending a body home, it is often easier to have a cremation in the UK and repatriate the ashes. If the person has been resident in the UK a long time, this is also makes it easy to have a "proper" send off in both countries. Most countries don't require any special permission to import cremains - though some (France!) do.

Isn't there a flaw in the idea of a night flight for a ?

There was a great quote of the day to be had in , except the golden quote wasn't reported by the ´óÏó´«Ã½. In the Metro article, it said: "He doesn't think he's an owl - he thinks he's a Gareth".

So sorry to see the DMQ going - really enjoyed answering (or trying to) everyday - it was good fun. I see the Have Your Say page has changed as well, not for the better I'm afraid, but..

DMQ "is being put out to pasture by dint of the fact a server is being switched off."
An answer typical of a politician: it answers the question without giving the questioner the information requested. Why could the DMQ not be transferred to another server, e.g. the one running Your Letters?
Keith, Lismore, Ireland

Why does the switching off of a server mean the Mini-Quiz has to be 'put out' to pasture? Your tech guys are clearly not geeky enough to port it elsewhere, tut!
Jo, Reading

Regarding the switching off of a server bringing with it the (premature) demise of the DMQ - where do servers go to when they die? Is there some mythical cave they return to before popping their clogs? Or do they suddenly burst into song before shuffling from this mortal coil? And please no answers involving "Silicon Heaven" - that's a Holness.

10 things: DMQ had a server all of its own - Your Letters, Wednesday (really?)

Re DMQ demise: that's right, blame the computer!
IT Spy, Peterborough

Can't believe the Daily Mini-Quiz is going. I do it every lunch time and it always brightens up my day.
