I wonder if the dispersion of light parallels actual piano sales in any way.
Turandot, you're reading it wrong. The California circles are the largest.

Did you know that, early in the school year, a fellow student tapped me on the shoulder after introductions and tentatively asked "Excuse me, but are you the Piano Trucker that posts on Piano World?"

There are only 50 people living on Pitcairn Island. Probably none of them have a piano :-) [/b]
Oh man... I guess none of them are Belly Dancers either, as I've never gotten a hit on my page from there either...
I mean, what *else* would they do with their spare time, they don't play pianos and they don't Belly Dance. Must be a dull existence...

On the contrary! Singapore is actually number 7 on the list, which is amazing for such a small country. There must be a strong correlation between country's ranking on the Piano World List and it's GDP and standard of living.
And now for the countries that are truly missing: Somalia Burkina Faso Mauritania Congo (Brazzaville) Liberia North Korea
Any others?
