Some questions I have on my Facebok page today. I appreciate not all of you have facebook or wish to use it, so I've copied them below. If you want to post your answers to me in a private message, I'll do a wee league table of who got what right and post them tomorrow morning, so deadline is 10am UK time tomorrow.

 All of the answers share a common four letter sequence.

1. What landmark was named one of the New 7 wonders of the world in 2007, and is falsely said to be visible from space?
