There is a saying* about not giving someone you do not like, some...moisture, if they were dying of thirst in the desert. I think he would qualify.

that, coupled with a long walk off a short plank at sea!!






* I would not post such a thing here, or actually anywhere, as it is very crude and graphic.

It depends on how the air brakes are designed. The air brakes on trains are designed for the brakes to be applied at a loss of pressure but the brakes on trucks are usually designed to be applied by adding pressure. This means that if a train loses air pressure the brakes lock (prevents runaway cars if one breaks free) but if a truck loses air pressure the brakes fail. I don't know but I assume that the monorails use the former type of air brake, where loss of pressure causes the brakes to apply.

Good thought hobie, but no. darph would have to buy lead to fill shoes. He has large roll of duct tape on his desk. Need to be frugal ya know. ;)
