Koohii stories:

1) [cameron_en] 3-12-2008(34): In the old days, instead of having a micro-computer sewn into the suit of the master spy, a whole computer was carried in the back of his cloak, although it was clearly obvious that he was a spy. "What's that um.. enormous computer doing in the back your cloak?".

2) [gavmck] 22-3-2010(3): Modern spy apparel includes microcomputers sown into the back of the top hat and scarf as seen in back (#399 裏). However, in the old days, the coal driven computer was so bulky it had to be hidden in the back of a bulky cloak. All these old spies masqueraded as hunchbacks.

3) [Meconium] 11-3-2010(1): The invisible man using the computer in back (#399 裏) could also travel through time. All he had to say was, "I want to be back in the [old]en days!" and he would be instantly teleported back [old]. All that would be left was the cloak he was wearing; when he dematerialised, it fell down beside the computer in a heap.

4) [Megaqwerty] 30-9-2007(1): Prior to donning a hat and cloak to protect his back, the evil cyborg simply kept a cloak to the side to protect his back [old].

5) [Panta] 23-3-2013(): In the old days top hats weren't that popular (think capitalism), but on the other hand, cloaks were more popular than they are now.
