Seif Day 21 vs. Gideon (LLL)

6/6! My fourth ever. I was pretty sure about 5 of them, but one was a complete guess.

1. Allende :), D32.  I had no clue.  So I just picked the name of the Chilean president who was killed in the coup and hoped that it was somehow related to the answer.  Message to the LL gods: Even despite this answer, you have still taken far more from me this season than you have given.

2. Goundhog Day :), D01.  I love this movie.  The only tricky part of this question for me was figuring out what the other movies were about.  But I think I saw 50 First Dates, so that was enough to get this.

3. Monte Carlo :), D23.  Obviously a complete gimme for me.  But in all honesty I didn't know that this term was specific to economics.  I'm hoping this means it's very hard.

4. Peristalsis :), D20.  I'm very familiar with this term.  Is this relatively common knowledge?  We'll see.

5. Coronation :), D12.  A British event in the middle of 1953.  Had to be coronation.  This is a world history question, not a food question.

6. Panhandle :), D11.  It's the major geographic feature these three states have in common, so it was the only answer that made sense.
