SMART card - (what is this???)
I think that's the OAP concessionary pass for the buses, or any local council issued smart card for the libraries etc etc.

Aha, Thats in my notes somewhere, True Power/Apparent power isnt it? which using trig you can express as Cos(theta)
Ideally you want it to be as close to 1 as possible, and can use capacitor or inductor banks to make theta = 0 (Ie no phase change)
Is this used any way in rolling stock power systems?
I'll give you that
I was about to post on here for a different reason, but then I saw that! Anyway, some git is playing that "Do they know..." Christmas song nearby. It's 40 days away yet! Turn it off!!!!!
EDIT: Actually, I think it might have just been on the radio somewhere. That's even worse hock:
In case you can't guess, for charity or not, I do not like that song!
The other day it was All I Want for Christmas Is You, although mercifully not the Mariah Carey version.

I wasn't aware there was another version... being as Carey wrote the song in the first place.
How do I cross tram lines?
Someone is robbing a bus with a gun, what are you going to do about it?!
Why can't I use a bus pass in France?
(said by someone going to a shopping centre with the bus stop right outside the entrance to the building)Why doesn't the bus stop nearer the shops inside the shopping centre?

However i confess when my brother joined the navy, i was only 14. He was going on a submarine, and i did ask him if it had windows.....i know, i know, rediculous!
Docotors receptionist to me back in 2002 while i was on crutches learning to use my prosthetic leg....lovely lady, very chatty: Oh dear love, what you been doing, breaking your leg. Me: No, sadly ive had to have it amputated: Rec: Oooh lovey thats not good, still i see people with legs missing in here some days, it could have been worse!
Que two other very embarrassed desk staff and a purple GP. It did make laugh so much, she really cheered up a crappy day!!

Yellow submarines have windows!
My eldest sister once asked me "how do you actually drive your train then, does it have a steering wheel?". She was deadly serious...:roll:
Well, actually, IIRC, it doesn't explain anywhere that the lines are separate entities.If you are not used to the convention used, the maps don't make obvious sense.....
I also love it when they ask for directions on the tube the questions are so daft like: "What do the coloured lines on this tube map mean?"
Well, yes and no. The question might well be expanded to "I am here at Baron's Court. Is the Piccadilly Line my best option for heading towards Stevenage, understanding that I might have to change somewhere?"..... "Can you get to Stevenage on the Piccadilly line?"
There is no such thing as a stupid question, only a stupid answer.
Some do...
I'd nominate the sort of question like "are you going?" when someone puts their coat on
Passport or EU government Identity Card only for Ryanair. No driving license. However, they don't have any UK domestic flights anymore.
Ryanair still do flights from Prestwick to Stanstead.
I don't have any of these. No internal flights for me, then. I shall have to stick with trains.
I have always thought it's quite important to have some sort of photographic ID. A CitizenCard is easy and cheap (£15) to obtain.
"Oh no thanks - I don't like fruit. Do you have a banana?"
Some do...
Hate to mention the obvious but that looks like the hand brake you get on the old DMUs and locos.
