Who was it that once said, ‘I get all the exercise I need being a pall bearer for my friends that exercise.’ Excuse the pall if I misspelled it.

Mark Twain and Chauncey Depew

Good gosh. I wear headphones on my walks and have the volume so low, I can hear an electric golf cart approaching. I am also blessed with exceptional hearing, after almost 40 years in the military. We always wore hearing protection when on the range, running generators, or around diesel engine equipment.

I was talking to an train engineer. He said people are aware that roads have traffic on them - they see it all the time, and are careful; starting off as little children.

But train tracks are different. Most people only encounter train tracks rarely. And when they do - they are almost always empty of trains. So there is not a perceived threat. The keyword of course being “almost”.

Looks like a classic case of allmänfarlig ödeläggelse.
