OP Here's the weekly NPR puzzle, hosted by our buddy the NY Times (non-cryptic) crossword puzzle editor, Will Shortz (btw the guy actually got his master's degree in cruciverbology! [or a word to that effect]).
The time limit for submitting answers has just ended, so please put me out of my misery; I can't wait till Sunday.
The Current Challenge (given April 25, 2004):
Name a world capital in six letters, then rearrange the six letters to name a well-known island. Here are two hints: the capital has more than 5 million people, so it's a big, well-known city. And the capital and the island are only about 1,000 miles apart.
