George G. Blaisdell founded this brand in 1932 under inspiration from a similar product from Austria. During WW II, they ceased production for consumer markets and dedicated all manufacturing to the U.S. military. Original Pink Floyd singer Syd Barrett used this product instead of slides in many songs such as See Emily Play. What brand are we talking about.

This is the second largest in the world in its field, with sales of £23.2 billion and made a profit of £7.8 billion in 2006. It employs around 110,000 people worldwide. However it had humble beginnings in Bunnythorpe, New Zealand and was originally a baby food manufacturer processing local milk into an early baby food by the same name, which was sold in the 1930s under the slogan "..... builds bonny babies".

Pepsi

Yeh dil mange more..

Aren't these ads of pepsi, mountain dew etc. injecting an attitude of a different kind into the new generation? A dont care or do anything kind of attitude, without thinking about the after effects? That shootout in a delhi school comes to my mind now.. Are incidents like this the resultant of such ads?

adMad Trivia Fortnight
The answer to last trivia was Pepsi. Congrats Deepthi, for being the lucky winner, and congrats to all those who got their answers correct. Now, moving on to today's trivia..

adMad Trivia Fortnight #6
This material consists of many microscopic crystals of iodoquinine sulphate (herapathite) embedded in a transparent nitrocellulose polymer film. The needle-like crystals are aligned during manufacture of the film by stretching or by applying electric or magnetic fields. With the crystals aligned, the sheet is dichroic: it tends to absorb light which is polarised parallel to the direction of the crystal alignment, but transmits light which is polarised perpendicular to it. The resultant electric field of an electromagnetic wave (such as light) determines its polarisation. If the wave interacts with a line of crystals as in a sheet of polaroid, any varying electric field in the direction parallel to the line of the crystals will cause a current to flow along this line. The electrons moving in this current will collide with other particles and re-emit the light backwards and forwards. This will cancel the incident wave causing little or no transmission through the sheet. The component of the electric field perpendicular to the line of crystals however can cause only small movements in the electrons as they can't move very much from side to side. This means there will be little change in the perpendicular component of the field leading to transmission of the part of the light wave polarized perpendicular to the crystals only, hence allowing the material to be used as a light polariser.

Sorry if it sounded like mumbo-jumbo; but the above material, known as J-sheet, was the main concept behind a product. Can you name it?

Reynolds

adMad Trivia Fortnight
In the United States, the first successful, commercially produced ballpoint pen to replace the then-common fountain pen was introduced by Milton Reynolds in 1945. It used a tiny ball that rolled heavy, gelatin-consistency ink onto the paper; a patented technology used in Biro pen. Named Reynolds Rocket, it was first released in Gimbel's department store, New York city. One of the famous patent wars involves Reynolds for using the ball point pen technology w/o permission.

Thus, the answer to last trivia is Reynolds and the lucky winner for the day is Bipin. Congrats man, and to all those who got their answers correct.
