My first quiz question (see link before) was met with derision, confusion and
and fault finding - all justified IMO - see here is the 2nd quiz question - I'll try to make this one absoutely crystal clear:

Well, now you made me look this up. According to the National Geograhic:
"By convention there are seven continents: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Europe, Australia, and Antarctica. Some geographers list only six continents, combining Europe and Asia into Eurasia. In parts of the world, students learn that there are just five continents: Eurasia, Australia, Africa, Antarctica, and the Americas.
So, I'll just give myself a correct. It's tough being a teacher Pal.

PQ…Thanks, but I have to watch your friend Steve Fisher (who recently was presented with the prestigious John R. Wooden Legends of Coaching Award) and my SDSU Aztecs battle against the dreaded AZ Wildcats tonight in the Maui Classic. Happy Thanksgiving!

We are definetely not Eurasia.
Eurasia is used as a term in geography or geology like in the Eurasian landmass or such.
But it has no relevance in describing the continent in everyday language when you asked a German, Italian or Spaniard.
Though the borders are merely by convention, of course.
