You can reboot a bus???
Yes. Saw it done on Thursday.
Travelling on the 440 along Parramatta Road in a westerly direction. Passenger gets on, inserts magnetic-stripe ticket into machine. Something wrong with the ticket – machine chokes, won’t give it back, machine out of service. Driver stops bus, switches off the ignition for a couple of seconds. Starts engine again, ticket machine initializes, spits out faulty ticket.
Had to laugh.

This isn’t the interesting, focussed blog you might have been looking for… "Pica Pica" is, as I'm sure you knew, the name for the common magpie. It's no more than a collection of bits and pieces I wanted to make available for friends and family. I have other blogs for dharma related material (at DangZang), and a small one for translation at my work site. Oh yes, it's by Alex Wilding
