Mornin', Dudes.

Enjoying all the rainy weather we've been getting here for the past couple of weeks. Really. We don't get enough rain around here, and it never comes down hard enough when it does.

It's almost enough to make one miss those scary mid-western thunderstorms that scare you out of your sleep.

Morning tithe... Fine morning, but the sky is a bit hazy, could be the smoke from the Australian bushfires. We do get their smoke when the wind blows across the Tasman Sea sometimes, makes you realize how big there fires are.

Great Plains TStorms are one of my favorite past times... I doesn't storm on the Plains NEAR like it did when I was a kid..

It'll be their Mk XIX that was sold by the bbmf to fund the rebuild of hurricane LF363 after she crashed at Wittering. I think the spit has not long finished a major servicing.

Carpool lane?

Leo "Apollo11"

"Minimum occupancy" lane also known as HOV lane in some places. Its a lane that you can only use if you have 2 or more people in the car. In theory it was supposed to make your daily commute faster by allowing you to travel in a lane not used by the majority of traffic and decrease pollution by making people carpool. The jury is still out on that I think.

Thanks for info!

BTW, is there any "official enforcement" of this "rule" by the law?

Very frequently yes, Leo. Hence people taking unusual 'shortcuts' to justify their presence in the HOV lane. Blow-up dolls, mannequins, dogs dressed as people in the passenger seat-you name it, it's been tried.
