I believe the QWERTY sequence answer must be the easiest one, unless you haven't use a keyboard in your whole life

And yet more people get Superman's planet and Popeye's girlfriend... Maybe it's because in some countries the QWERTY is actually QWERTZ (German-speaking countries) or even AZERTY (France, if I'm not mistaken). Not to mention the countries where, the Latin alphabet is not the main one...

Not everybody realises that qwerty refers to the keyboard? Also no, not all devices come with the "standard english keyboard layout", there are *loads* of alternatives. Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout .

First of all, you only have one, and it isn't that good. It has an outdated question (population), and short clues.

The Egyptian obelisk "La Concorde" is also at the end of the Champs Elysees, the question doesn't say which direction you're going.

"La Concorde" is not the obelisk, it's the square it's on - the "place de la Concorde". The obelisk itself can be referred to as either the "obélisque de la (place de la) Concorde", or "obélisque de Louxor".

Symbol for Krypton is KR not K, that is potassium. And maybe for chickenpox you could also accept varicella.

There was an absolutely fiendish clue in the Saturday's New York Times puzzle: "Line just before a comma".

The answer: ZXCVBNM

It took me ages because it looked like such utter nonsense --- I questioned, hesitated and doubted over every crossing clue. Hours later, I finally realized it was referencing the bottom row of the QWERTY keyboard.
