[QUOTE=Uncwilly;554860]No, because they don't use feet.[/QUOTE]Then what do they put their shoes on?

Strange... Don't they have tides there? I didn't click the article (yet) but if you say Sydney, then they have tides higher than a foot. When the tide is high, what the ferries do? Leave part of the roof under the bridge, or take part of the underbridge with them? :w00t:

“The process of customers moving to the lower deck between Rydalmere and Parramatta [one stop] is already in place for the existing fleet of charter vessels currently used by Transdev Sydney Ferries"

We never let that stop us around here!

We are good. We love retina. We know it was a joke, our was the same.
Our strength stays in the fact that we are different*.
Therefore, our sense of humor is also different.
We are still good.

Well, alrighty then! The :razz: probably should have told me so

I may be culturally biased and narrow-minded. To me, calling someone a liar is no joke.

I failed to take context properly into account...

No problem.

It happens to the best of us. All of us. :smile:
