bus vs. car theory

On the bus, my friend told me a funny but logical theory. It goes like this: In Singapore, bus gets better treatment than cars. (e.g. There is a special lane for buses but not for cars. ) As the advantage of travelling by bus than by car increase, and the advantage of driving a car decreases(e.g. price hike, increase in tax), more people will switch to buses. However, as more people take buses, the road will be crammed with buses, not cars. Then, people will switch back to car again. It's a cycle, isn't it?

why i named my blog hyper-pen

There 's a proverb that goes "The pen is mightier than the sword" hence I created this blog with the URL of http://hyper-pen.blogspot.com/. But, nowdays with the advanced technology, online posting is supposedly the mightiest. Just a few years ago the access to world wide web is made possible, but now it was the most effective ways to spread informations.(Not newspaper anymore!)
