The mistaken identity of the cell....

It was a nice sunny (no! not sunday) monday morning. As usual I was reluctant to get outta bed but I had a 9:00AM class to attend. Consoling my poor self, I hurried up to attend KC's class (well he is our Chairman and he teaches Solidification Processing). Again late! Oops nobody minds but its embarrasing when the whole class turns to look at you while you are entering. Well they dont mean to stare but it is a good excuse for them to get away from the droning voice of the teacher. Luckily enough he had not started class, so when the lecture began a few minutes later everyone was for a surprise.
He started to ask questions instead of teaching as he wanted to start a new topic that day and the topic was cellular solidification. I had no idea what that meant, neither did the class. Happy to have got an oppurtunity to harass, KC started asking each student induvidually what a cell meant. In response he got very vague and wierd answers. Now coming to the point; we had a classmate by the name Ashwani Kumar. He had a characteristic of attending classes late well later than me by atleast 10 minutes. So here he was walking to the classroom as usual late, no! very late, unaware of what was happening in the class. So when he entered, everyone's turn of giving their version of "what a cell was?" over. As Ashwini was the only one left, KC asked him "what is a cell?"
He answered out of confusion "Nokia Sir!" (his cell in hand) amidst roars of laughter.
