Question 6
Question 6: What's up with Torontál and Tolna in the county-level waypoints? They're nowhere near Slovakia.

Answer 6: These counties are listed because of two mis-identified and therefore mislabeled towns, both of them actually in Komárom county. All of the images filed as "Tolna > Tolna" should correctly be labeled Komárom > Tolna (Vértestolna). All of the images filed as "Torontál > Szőlős" should correctly be labeled Komárom > Szőlős (Vértesszőlős). Also, the images labeled as "Komárom - Szőlős (Kameničná)" have the wrong current placename; they are also for (Vértes)szőlős.
