    Technically your not 100% right as hamoukar is still under excavation and while it will probably will be deemed the oldest city, its not considered so yet. (You should have looked lower than the top result in google;))

    The answer is Damascus, will give it to you as they are actually both in Syria and your close enough.
    The stage is yours.

    he didnt get it right sure ,fair enough theyre in the same country but thats all ,damascus is miles away from hamoukar, one is in the east and one is in the west,hardly close.:rolleyes:

    There are three keys missing from my laptop keyboard, and yet it is perfectly functional.

    Which keys are they ?

    This is not a trick question ... I really am missing three keys. Only one of them has been mentioned so far.

    You could probably manage with one "Ctrl" key and one "Shift" key.

    Would the answer be "Oh bugger, I seem to have posted this in the wrong thread/forum"?
    In anticipation of my response being correct I'll pose a question.
    Name the genus of this cat.

    I have it as Panthera Onca but I'd not be able to tell you the difference between them. Panthera was close enough for me.
    Your turn. :)
