Verlina Reynolds of Trenton, New Jersey!
I’m pleased to announce that Ms. Verlina Reynolds of Trenton, New Jersey is the first winner of the Welchester’s Concierge Trivia Challenge. She correctly answered the question, “What widely used electronic device was invented in 1973?”. The answer is cellular phone. Congrats Verlina!
There were a few of other’s who answered correctly but not as quickly as Verlina. Thanks to Adam Nichols of FetchTime and Markations, Justin Wszolek of United First Financial and Don Wallar of Trenton, New Jersey for participating and having the correct answer.
Arnold Rosner of Strand Management Solutions, Inc. gave me an entertaining explanation on how the programmable calculator was introduced in 1973. Thanks Arnold.
Thank you to masses who took educated guesses. Some guessed the microwave, the vcr, computer, vacuum cleaner, the ethernet and internet (which are not actual devices, but what the hay), the fax machine and more!
A special thank you to this week’s trivia challenge sponsor, Sinclair Management Group!
