Predictive – Or Just Mere Intuition?

Published on 17/02/2005, by in General.

Today, I decided to have fun trying out to see if I can predict the near (really near) future or not. Here's what I did – I looked at my watch – started the stopwatch, and decided to try it for some fun. I visualized a RapidKL bus coming down the road when the stopwatch hit 13 minutes and 56 seconds. I was right – except that the bus was on the other side of the road going the other way. I tried again, this time trying to be more specific, and guessed that another bus would show up at 14 minutes 21 seconds. I was right – a RapidKL bus came – but it wasn't the route I wanted to take. This time I decided to be even more specific – I visualised the bus number. I got a time of 14 minutes 56 seconds. I was again right this time round – the bus came to a complete stop at the bus stop at exactly 14 minutes 56 seconds, although I didn't get into the bus until the stop watch hit 15 minutes 1 second.

Coincidence that I chose correct stopwatch readings? I honestly don't know about that. :P

  1. Ah … another satisfied RapidKL user aren’t you? I wonder which that your were waiting on that gets a RapidKL bus every 15mins. ;-)

    Erhemm, at least no more Intrakota nightmare around KL.That’s great but some rapid drivers don’t know how to stop 4 passengers..

    The service is too bad.Irresponsibilty bus driver.Have to wait long time to get the bus.The fare RM2.50 is too much.

    It’s every 15 mins.
    But sometimes – it stretches back to nightmarish 45 minutes again. >
