  4. I hope it'll be bumped up to 54 - wasn't awarded points for just giving a surname as an answer.

    Obligatory Litany: should have done a lot better.

    To JR,

    Yeah, had expected you to score in the high-60s or low-70s like last year.

    Expecting your usual analysis in the other blog.

    And how much has Meghshyam scored himself, considering that he has jumped in on JR's behalf unasked ?

    @Anonymous - Wasn't aware that providing JR's score constituted a felony worthy of penal action stopping just short of termination with extreme prejudice.
    I got 38, just for the record.....

  9. arre the official masterkey or answerkey or whatever u wish to call it says that one should get points wherein one has written just the last name...if first name is written and is incorrect then one is docked a point... so that makes my score 46 and yash u can add 2 points for boltzmann n bering .........

    Arul Mani is such a punk and coward. He has shut off Daly Haal on Livejournal to outsiders. Maybe he is afraid some one will post that fact that BrindaChari is a successful authoress of two Penguin novels while he makes he earns his living off these quizzes when he not being crude to his students.
