I'm quite sure but not that sure that I will eat my shoes if I'm wrong
but didn't Douglas Adams use grok in his trilogi in four parts (The
hitchhikers guide to the galaxy)?

If I'm right and even if I'm wrong then I will agree with the person
who started all this that a manual can't use words that isn't in the
dictionary even if 42 of his friends knows the word (See some of you
laughed/nooded/"thinked"/... just because of a stupid number but what
about the rest of the world that don't know that it is the answer to
The Life, the universe and everything!)
