Yes, same page it is. (:
however for the analogy, you own the car, the bus driver doesnt.
but he's responsible for the bus.that's the point he's been trying to drive home.
ultimately it still depends on individuals and you can't blame people for being uptight when their pictures are being taken.
Who knows what might be done with their pictures?

Seen one small group of them.. belonged to some group called Military Nuts or something. These guys are into the engineering and the mechanism of military weapons in Armed Forces around the world. A sub-group are interested in ships. They can spend the entire 2 visiting days (total 14 hours) of IMDEX Asia to take a look at all 40+ warships at the berths at Changi.
I was privileged to be able to see a Nimitz class carrier up front....and it seriously is freaking huge.Able to embark 85 airplanes and has unlimited range for 20 years...even if they say it is a sitting duck it still doesn't take the fact away that it really demonstrates the US's bluewater might.
Honestly 14 hrs isn't enough time I'll bet.

After I taken a picture of that bus, the BC/SL will does this :
-- Smile and Wave at me
-- Ignored and continue driving
-- Face locked onto me and never look to the front, like feeling amazed and shocked. -

But however, you still had to deal with those nasty BCs who are well-concerned and amazed about taking bus pixs. Please don't think that all BCs are very nice and courteous to you, sometime he might stop the bus (either at traffic junction or approaching the bus stop) and question you.

Agreed!I wonder why does poor Mr 9888Y bothers talking to it?He knows that that thing dosent exist right? -
I remembered after snapping SBS2667P on Sv 153 at a bus stop, the BC asked me to board the bus and asked what I was doing.
I told him I am snapping a pic of the bus and showed him the photo, he asked me a few questions which I have forgotten and the bus was hold up at the bus stop for a few mins which I felt embarrased
After that incident, the BC knew me and recently never seen him driving. -

Ok to be honest i'm the one who drive that bendy,I got my own concept of telling bus fans which bus i'm driving.Some of those who follow me always had no chance to board bendy driven by me.Only a handful fans did take before but majority who knows me only board rigid.Simple i dun wanna create hoohahs.Remember last time 109 use Dart?Yes i'm the one also driving it.At least the senior are more sensible to ask for photoshoot at the bus stop before Changi Village and yes i've notice some gugujiao xiao di risk his life chasing my bus at Pasir Ris Mall.Isk isk you especially the gugujiao should learn more from the senior here rather than jeopardising with your life.I too like buses just like cars and motorcycles but to a certain limit.Heed my advice when you obtain your degree feel welcome to join the PTC,LTA,SBST or SMRT as you have the knowledge and advantages over other applicant.I'm not boasting but you can ask SMRT AMDEP management who partly solved the problem of IDFC and parking problems at AMDEP?

I would take this kind of hybrid buses as a stepping stone to something more green, perhaps a full electric or alternative source energy powered vehicle.
Yes, there are plenty of materials wasted and destroyed, emissions made in the production of the vehicle. Heck, even the bus bodywork is made from limited materials mined from the earth. Given the current situation however, there seems to be little alternative to this.
I would take Japan as an example here, they manufacture the batteries and produce the hybrid buses and vehicles. Industries have caps on emissions as well, not only the vehicles, hence the government there implemented laws to restrict industrial emissions, all the way from manufacturing to the end user. Recycling to them is almost a compulsory thing as well. A complete package of restriction is necessary to ensure that the end product is more efficient in inflicting less harm on the environment than a conventional method made product. MTS Video Converter
However if you are presenting the point that 'we're still not doing enough for the environment', I would like to hear from you; what kind of bus or vehicle would be the ultimate green vehicle? Do not take this as a challenge; I just want to hear from your point.

some of us use dslrs, some of us use dc, some of us use handphone camera.DSLRs go by the thousands. Since SITEX is this weekend you may wish to get a brochure or two to check out the prices...

Yesterday , when I was taking a picture of SBS8540G on 39 , the BC waited for me to take the picture before he leave the bus stop but my handphone ran out of battery so I didn't take it. :(
