Thanks, Bill. The old timers use to carry a railroad type pocket watch, with the sweep second hand.My bus/trolley driver friend would say it's 6:34 and a half, coming 6:35, if the sweep second hand was past 45 seconds. It was wild, with the old watches Now the SEPTA AMDT driver's radios have the time in seconds, and if you are more than one minute early at a time point a 1E shows up. On his last trip at 12:35M, he leaves at 12:34:15 to fool the timer. |
