That's Geographical Fugue. A spoken chorus which is really neat. I used to have an ambitious music teacher when I was 16. We worked on that piece with her an entire semester. No success though.

I think you'll find that's Shakespeare.

Well, you know, Shakespeare did kind of resemble a pear...

Someone should make an animated version of that picture to really mess with people's minds.

They also listed Crete as a country, when it's part of Greece, and named "Burma" which has called itself Myanmar since 1989.

I always hated the Animaniacs.

Actually, spelling hadn't been formalised at the time, and while "Shakespeare" is now the commonly-used version, there's bound to be someone who spelt it like rlpw did.

I was aware of that, Shakespeare himself was known never to write his name the same way, but as we have a standard form in this day, I will not tolerate a deviation from it!
