biju, you use gmail. of *course* google knows everything, they read your 
private mails. perhaps "manipal" was mentioned in some mail sent by you, to 
you or by/to one of the people on your address list who happen to have 
gmail accounts...

-rishab (who was shocked when he heard from a google board member that the 
store all ip addresses for all searches forever, and won't round off - eg. 
to class C or zip code - because they don't yet know what they want to do 
with this wonderful privacy-invading detailed stuff)
