Their answer to "sysop" is completely bogus. The term has been around longer than bulletin board systems have been around, so that should tell you right off the bat that they're wrong. It stands for System Operator and isn't tied to any particular system. I chose the unix one and got it wrong. Lies, dirty lies!

I guessed on ISDN and got it right. Hmm.

I got the MILK thing wrong, I have never heard of MOO so I just guessed. Oh well.
