Okay Reference gurus,

Reference stumper of the day ... what is the total number of islands in
the world??

There seem to be totals by region and even totals for the country with
the greatest number of islands (Finland, by the way), but I can't find
anything that gives a total count.

Does anyone know??

Thanks!

Angie
