Small things please.....ummm....great minds

OK, I admit it. Sometimes I'm easily amused or impressed with simple things. But recently I saw something that I thought was pretty cool.

They just built a new LRT station in our city and it has 'smart escalators'. When nobody is riding them, they move very slowly. When you step on them, they ramp up to their full speed again. What a great way to save energy.
