This isn't my memory ... a memory of one of the people in the Homewood
Engineering office ... goes back somewhat farther than I could possibly
remember ... I think it came from Karl Hittle, who described riding to
school on the Pittsburgh 6000s.  The first 6000s, not the second group.
He recalled that you would get seats on the second deck Then, should the
proper young lady be standing in the aisle adjacent, with a little
effort you could get the car swaying from side to side until the girl
you had selected fell into your lap.

Last message I read mentioned the small of ozone coming out of South
Hills Tunnel?  What did we really smell?  My high school chemistry
teacher described ozone as a colorless, odorless gas.
