Posted by Broadway Lion on Thu Apr 27 21:49:57 2006, in response to I apologize for acting up Re: CBTC to the System, posted by Subway Camper on Thu Apr 27 21:34:21 2006. I understood what you were *trying* to say.The LION thinks that it was obvious. But this is a board of railfans, which *means* a board of nit-pickers. Regardless of what you were saying it was a nest full of nits ready for picking. These terms have very precice technical meanings. So you *might* just have said "Gee, I think computer operated trains would be faster." NOBODY could have argued or even picked nits with that statement. And you would have been 100% correct. But CBTC, ATO, OPTO etc &ct all have precice meanings, and your usage did not match the precision required thereof. So Take a Lesson from your LION. Use your words accurately and you will go far. Speak like a schlamiel and you will get your butt kicked. ROAR |
