Balloon Man Gets on the Bus

I mean how else are you supposed to transport balloons in the evening?

This guy got on the bus with all his balloons and got off again two stops down the road. Very surreal.

Speed Defies Scientific Logic

I was shocked to read in Popsci.com that the bus leaping scene in Speed was not consistent with the laws of physics. My wife loves this movie and will be devastated that Sandra Bullock was living a lie as she careered off the bridge at great velocity.

Who would have thought that Hollywood would cook the books. What message are they trying to send to hoon bus drivers?

Tindo the Solar Powered Bus Hits Adelaide

Adelaide has commissioned a solar powered bus as part of their public transport system.

The Tindo (aboriginal word for sun) will get its electricity from a $AU550,000 solar PV system on Adelaide's central bus station. Even better: Rides are free as part of Adelaide's public transport system.

Nice! Although it is only a small commitment towards environmentally friendly public transport, it is a very visible reminder of the potential of solar power in a part of the world which can use it.

Thanks Ecogeek.
