1: We are all human. 2: We all make mistakes. 3: Wherever possible, we correct them. Unfortunately, technology only makes people use silicon rather than the Mk 1 computer. Sadly, more & more issues such as the one below, only continues to confirm that fact. |

As I got older, I could not help thinking on how stupidity works its way upwards. 50 years ago here in the UK at least, the bean counters thought it would be a good idea to cut costs in the public transport sector. Switching from 2 manning to OMO (One Man Operator) Getting rid of guards on trains & conductors on buses. 50 years later... ...Driverless buses Bus captains? (known as conductors in the past). Safety drivers? (known as bus drivers in the past). Sheesh! |

... Bus captains? (known as conductors in the past). I strongly suspect that the extra staff going along for the ride are temporary and there only to "reassure" the guinea-pig public... Thence onwards just like the London DLR... Roll onwards into progress! Martin See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

Maybe the dead guy should of picked a different address... Catalytic-converter theft suspect stabbed to death in South El Monte driveway ... Deputies made contact with the resident of the house, who said he had been sleeping when he heard people outside tampering with his car. He went outside to investigate, where he was confronted by three to four people. An altercation ensued and one man was fatally stabbed. |
