Thu, 27 Jul 2006 15:31:50 +0000 http://pencilguy.dview.net/blog.cgi/m04/naturalgasbus.html#comment-1837 [...] Back when the CNG buses first appeared I commented on the interior design, which seemed ugly at the time but has since grown on me. These newer natural gas buses feature sexy black plastic handles on the seats (not only is black the new black, it’s the new yellow!) and the surveillance camera mountings are much, much more subtle. Other changes include better lighting (with reading lights for the kids at the front) and … dig it … openable windows! But there are only four of them, and they’re small, so I doubt they’re of any real use.

Three run on hydrogen and are white; they have a chunky bit on top where the hydrogen tanks are. A second set of two or three run on natural gas and are painted in the usual grey Transperth regalia. Alas, I can't find any links for the latter. If you didn’t already believe I spend too much time on buses …

If only I had some system which automagically found them for me. Kinda like Wikis ConcatenationOfStringsAutomaticallyLinking. RSA is cool. For sending keys. Noone uses it for anything else. Oh, and those buses produce no CO2 (arent they running on H2, not natural gas?). They claim Zero Emissions! Its cool that you did the linking. I never do. Im too lazy.

And as for exams, well mine are over, which I meant to say in the original post, but I think it got buried under all my vague ramblings. I deny this vehemently!

No, I did not visit them. Any of them. I too am working hard for exams. Mine is on wireless networks, data abstraction and structures, and databases. At this point I'm so not interested in any of the topics nothing is sinking in... bah I say... Now that I've stolen you blogg and filled it with misspelled words and poor grammer, I shall leave. Good luck with the rest of your exams, should you have any more pending. Ye'ol'pal (well mabey not ol') Hmm… this is …. disturbing!
