If you're moving to another city about 600 kilometers (400 miles) away, and you wait until midnight on a Friday to find out when the next train leaves, that is completely insane, right?
Cause a friend of mine called me last night to ask if I could check when the next train was leaving, cause I'm apparently the only person he knows within 600 kilometers who has an Internet connection and he just had to make the move as soon as possible. On a Saturday morning. As I write this, the next train leaves in 45 minutes, but we've spent about 15 SMSes between us to figure out which train out of the four leaving today is the cheapest and what its drawbacks are. After I told him how to call the train company and ask them since I'm so tired I'm not even sure which city he's leaving. Of course this is the guy who's neglected to change his address since he lived at my place for a couple of weeks six years ago because deep down he believes me sending him his bills by email magically makes it easier to handle the complex action of paying his bills. (Conjecture.) And calls me in the middle of the night to ask things like what's 325 multiplied by 214. And owes me roughly 2000 USD since six years. But seriously, what I'm asking is, would a normal person try to have a glance at the train tables before making plans to leave town by train?
