A Historic Note
Dec. 24th, 2008 08:34 pmI'm currently typing this post while traveling at 300km/hour! (I'm on a Thalys train.) As an aside, all of the trains here in Europe are spooky-quiet. Like more quiet than my hybrid car. I'm used to BART and Caltrain, which are so loud you can't hold a conversation with the person next to you. Here, I can hear people whispering at the other end of this car.

Date: 2008-12-27 02:33 am (UTC)All my life, aside from living in Sacto from 1997-2000 and in Ontario for 6 months in 2006. Ricochet sounds vaaaguely familiar but in 1994 I was in high school, so not travelling about on trains, and we didn't have "real" internet at my house yet anyway (that was 1995 -- only CompuServe before then, although granted, since I was about 6 years old) so I wouldn't have known the need for it.
