Trivia time. Which is the older word-bus or buss? What is bus short for? |

Since they were dealing with the federal government, they had to frame it their perspective. What I have been trying to say all along is that Jackpot is officially on Pacific time per the federal government and Mountain time per the state government. Which prevails, I'm not sure, but think that per the Tenth Amendment it would be Nevada. Famartin doesn't seem to understand the concept that there can be two different official time zones.
My cars observe Mountain Time half of the year, including now, because I can't figure out how to change the clocks in them.
It is my understanding that the word for bus in Spanish is omnibus, but whenever I use that word in a Spanish-speaking country people look at me like they don't have a clue what I'm saying. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

Have you tried RTFM? It works nearly every time ;)
Are you becoming Sheldon Cooper on purpose or by accident? ;) Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Famartin wrote some comments to you on my talk board. Rather than interpret them, I'll just re-post them here, To be clear, we both have the same last name, and the same initials for first and middle name.
