One fine day, a bus driver went to the bus garage, started his bus, and drove off along the route.

Six feet eight,built like a wrestler, arms hanging down to the ground. He glared at the driver and said, 'Big John doesn't pay!' and sat down at the back. Did I mention that the driver was five feet three, thin, and basically meek? Well, he was. Naturally, he didn't argue with Big John, but he wasn't happy about it. The next day the same thing happened-Big John got on again, made a show of refusing to pay, and sat down. And the next day...

Abhijit Anand Prabhudan  |  Added idea  "Prefabricated green architecture"  |  1 year ago
Most don't have expertise to design and build green homes. Prefabricated green homes, assembled either at factory or on site using automation will make green houses affordable and widespread. Also, prefabricated homes can be made using local...
