I will try to keep all these things in mind while writing. I am an average guy and not a CS major. I have an industrial engg. background. So I never try to impress the CS students or use jargon until absolutely necessary. Also, I don't write on anything that I can't understand :-) But I will be extra careful from now onwards ;-) Safarial: Thanks. I will try to keep all these things in mind while writing.

But it was fun, wasn't it? <b>Silverine</b>: Operation 'metal-furniture'. I like the name. We chose that particular time, because that is the only time when most of the people will be sleeping.

Hope lots of CET'ians are reading this. I gave the link to a couple of cousins studying there and they were like amazed at your capers. And even more amazed at your blog :) This was so funny..to think you sat so late at night and carried out the operation 'metal-furniture' LOL It's a miracle you didn't land in the cop station ( we would have had another interesting post on that if you did). ha ha ha you were a mischievous lot.
