When I was on the TrolleyCars back in the 1970s, Delay was the
'Operative' (oxymoron) Word. I finally got so tired of the
question of: "Why the Delay?" that I answered by saying I
parked at the curb on Market and Van Ness and had lunch in Zim's!!
.
One guy got on my PCC one day and asked why the buses were
delayed. My response: "Are they delayed, too?" I was
being honest -- my sister, a Very Non-Technical person, N-E-V-E-R
calls a TrolleyCar a ({[bus]}) ---- N-E-V-E-R!~!~!~! Took
me Quite A While to get used to the TrolleyCars being called ({[beeses]})
