My better half hit me with this question and says she wants my answer by 11:15pm EST tonight Saturday 12-30-06. Honestly, I don't have a clue other than they are all capitals. I'll send over 500 DNF$ for the best answer.

What is the connection in the following list?

Buenos Aires, Tirana, Vienna (1,1); Sofia (2,1);Ottawa (3,1); London (5,4); Paris (6,5).
 
The Alfabet !

Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentinia (1,1)
Tirana is the capital of Albania (1,1)
Vienna is the capital of Austria (1,1)
Sofia.............Bulgaria (2,1)
Ottawa...........Canada (3,1)
London..........England (5,4)
Paris............France (6,5)
The position in the alfabet of the first and last letter of each country corresponds to the numbers given.
 
my guess it is some kind of property barometer (for the property market in those cities) i dono
