This is only marginally related to the above posting but it reminded me
of something I haven't seen mentioned on the list before, to my
surprise. Brit car enthusiasts who have visited the University of
California at Davis no doubt have noticed the Double Decker buses used
there for on campus public transportation. I'm not sure who
manufactured them but they are British. I have a poster size picture of
one of these buses shrouded in fog in my family room at home. I plan to
take a closer look at it tonight to see if it's an AC. I never dreamt
that my car and these buses had anything in common.
