no no no..it's not "I AM YOUR FATHER!"

It stands for "Information at your fingertips"- a term coined by the gr8 Billy uncle!

Inspired by Harry Potter. Howler is a letter, which when opened by the recipient shouts and howls on him/her and if not opened explodes like a bomb.

I have been posed that question n number of times

The last being by cat=chimera woh bhi ... aaj hi

Before i actually go into the specifics ... I suppose it wud be fun to bring together the varied guesses that puys have made

Puys are always opinionated
  1. SinGapore eXchange
  2. Sex100
  3. Yamaha RX 100
  4. Im 100 on the weighing scale
  5. Some one said im a suck** so moi sux
  6. G String - I still fail to figure out that one
  7. X 100...with subtle references to XXX
  8. Linux of the Tux fame
  9. RDX
But its none of the above
No close guesses

I guess the pik in this link will remove even the last traces of ambiguity if any

I am not much of a fan!

Then there is this this long philosophy about how life is sodoku coz u have some fixed boxes filled which decide the fate of other boxes and what will go into them....

But thats not d reason my nic's sodoku

Its so coz I couldn't think of anything better spontaneously :neutral:
