  At long last..... a truly epic rap battle!

  Nikola Tesla vs Thomas Edison

   

  Frankly speaking, I've always seen Edison as overrated at best and a dishonest crook at worst.

  Freak, that guy truly screwed Tesla to kingdom come. If the Tesla is the unit for magnetism, then the Edison should be the unit for douchebaggery.

  Remember how we were poking fun of the 'despo' ads in teenage magazines?

  

  You know, I can actually imagine the girl calling the police and asking them to do a stakeout at Sembawang Hill foodcourt this Sunday.

  Y'know, I can actually imagine the girl's dad showing up on Sunday to do a Liam Neeson on the poor sod.

   

  'I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you....'

  Actually, come to think of it, this could be a great idea for some viral marketing...

   

  I can imagine some drama scene at the food court where the girl actually turns up and end up they were advertising for some stuff...

   

   

  if this is not a marketing/publicity stunt or troll, then this guy must be really desperate indeed

  Here's something I uncovered during my research into the 2011 SMRT "disaster" in Dec.

  Apparently the cable-tie "solution" was sanctioned by engineering experts from SMRT, LTA and NTU and another outside agency.

  Quote from the Commission of Inquiry document:

   

   

  Professor Ewins (W95) notes that the latest generation of 

  claws, which are referred to as the fifth generation claws, have had a number 

  of failures in recent times. As such, the experts are of the view that the best 

  way forward is to use the cable ties as an interim solution until a more robust 

  design is developed. The experts are cognisant of the fact that the use of the 

  cable ties might not appear to be sound engineering practice, but they 

  stressed that this is not a long-term solution and is meant to serve as a 

  prudent solution in the immediate future, with the proviso that the cable ties 

  are properly maintained

  Key words: 'interim solution', 'not appear to be sound engineering practice', 'not a long-term solution'.

  Which begs the question: after more than one year, has a permanent solution been found, or are they still using cable ties?

  Not in a position to answer that unfortunately...

  But it seems that they found faults aplenty in the 3rd rail, including metal impurities which led to early fatigue, and also faults in the "rogue" train that appeared to have led to the events, including wheel flatting etc etc.

  So actually it points to manteinance issues on SMRT's part.
