@Rahulk: I guessed it was a joke, but real paranoia made me play safe :)

Thanks for your positive feedback on BB. We are glad that you like the site!

If you had started answering in August, you could have won yourself a t-shirt!

@ Devdutta

I know there was some probs with the cafe\’s IC …. I was just joking … But somehow my joke got drowned amidst all this talks…

Anyways I know you wont include any backend to differentiate between my workstation and the cafe…

But one thing for sure…. BB rules… Absolutely… I fervently wait for your questions everyday… I was a late vistor to your website… Has been visiting it since June… Till October I was not able to crack even a single question while going through your archives…. But once I answered one question , I somehow manage to answer a lot more since then… Seriously good work put up by you guys… Kudos to you….

@Rahulk: We don’s have any code on BB which differentiates between a cyber cafe and workstation. I suspect that the cyber cafe’s internet connection had issues which might have resulted in incomplete session setup.

If you face the same problem again, do let us know and we will see what we can do about it.

Thanks anyways. And of course, paranoia is good :)

@Devdutta : I did it already and done it legally … Its just that I have directed your attention that your site refused to recognize me in a cyber cafe (even I provided it the name)… But it recognized me when I did it from my workstation… Robots refusing the three laws of robots… Perhaps I should change my name to Paranoid Rahulk….

@Dibyo: 1 is a “Victrola” manufactured by Victor. 1 does not directly lead you to the “Victor” company.
Thus JVC is not correct.

Wouldn’t JVC also fit the description?
Victrola -> Victor -> Japan Victor Co. -> JVC

It’s also electronic co. so it fits all clues.

Hey the Anonymous guy in the top of the answer is me… I tried to give the answer from a cyber cafe but it seems to refuse to take my name …. I have to come to my workstation the next day to give the answer…

Motorola was concieved by the Gavin brothers as a portmanteau of “Victorola” and “Motor”
