    Am I right in recalling that the car park is free for train users (if spaces are available) and you can get a car-park ticket from the ticket office?

    Anybody use it and how does it work?

    Yes park up go inside for a ticket. They ask to see your train ticket first though

    I never knew this! Kin ell. You should be taught this stuff in school. I know the Creb Cycle FFS. How do I know that and not this?! Breaking news tomorrow, if you want a house and can't afford it, you get given one. And someone cooks your tea. Meanwhile I can recite the second law of thermodynamics.

    The entropy of an isolated system will increase over time and can never be negative.

    I actually disagree with that. Brave, I know, but I genuinely do. It is biased. And it is biased because our universe began in such a low entropic state. Of course entropy is going to increase over time when it starts so low. But such low entropy is almost unheard of. It is the break from the norm. If you start with such low entropy it will increase. Most systems do not. And therefore it can, and does, go either way.

    Gather together a million people tossing coins and after 10 chucks there will still be about 1,000 who have 10 straight heads. And another 1,000 who have 10 straight tails. Those that have a perfect distribution of 5 and 5 I don't have the maths to work out.

    We'll have to chat thermodynamics* over a beer, bet it'd just be me and thee for that one ;)




    *I have to teach it to engineering UGs, I'd rather talk about anything else to be honest.
