Question

Why is this section titled "Misi-Pyrenees" when it should be Midi-Pyrenees?

Answer 1

To cut a long story short, "s" and "d" are next to each other on the keyboard...

Answer 2

yes, you're right, it makes me 'nervous' ! There is the same mistake in Yahoo Italy and Germany If I remember well...

Answer 3

Are you crazy??? The name has just been changed officially by the French government. Paris will also now be known as Maris.

Answer 4

Quite right of course but as to why, I assume it is simply because the people at Yahoo are far from perfect.

Someone obviously mistyped something during the programming.

They also make  mistakes that actually affect the running of the software (you'll notice that the actual number one top answerers in every section find we have disappear red...that's a programming glitch they made a week or so ago and are still trying to figure out how to fix).  So who knows when they will get around to fixing a typo in a category.
