Why UPS trucks don’t turn left (in the USA)

  • Waiting to turn left wastes time and fuel, and increases the safety risks.
  • Last year, the company’s routing software shaved 20.4 million miles off routes and reduced CO2 emmissons by 20,000 metric tones.

Fascinating! I never knew this.

What side of the road do you drive on?
Seeing this chart made me sit up and notice that my view of the world is really just that. My view. I had no idea some many countries drove on the right hand side.

OK, so why the zen bones thing?

About 20 years ago I stumbled upon a book called "Zen Flesh, Zen Bones". Being vegetarian - the "flesh" bit didn't grab me, but the short pithy Zen stories inside it, did.

Ever since then my web nick has been zenbones, my Hotmail, my Gmail address, you name it. It's kinda stuck.

Is the blog about Zen? Nope.
