We have a toll free line, and every stop has a "Stop number". You punch that in and get the next three stops.
But the best tool IMO is the STM (Société de Transport de Montréal) site, which, although doing what Google also does, does it with more precision. http://www2.stm.info/taz/index.php?lng=en
Pretty cool to factor in holidays
I have a diploma in Arts & Cinematographic Studies.
I am now a programmer in the largest telecom company in Canada (yes, the one that got close to being bought, but then didn't).
Go figure.
Point is, as said often enough, just practice doing anything a job, any job requires: self-reliance, adaptability, self-imporvement, self-put-a-characteristic-here.
I just have six LCDs on a single computer at home, and I can tell you, from video editing or simple web, Word, Excel and Photoshop browsing, you can unleash the drag-and-drop to its full potential. Yeah, it feels I'm a teleworker from NASA of CSIS, but hey, it's quite cool to have that much screen real estate. At work, I have three CRTs, each hooked to their respective computer (linked by switch box). My job involves loads of automated work using macros. Nobody asked questions, as I output the work value of 3+ employees, so I guess they prefer keeping me and my hardware rather than adding somebody to the payroll. It's pretty neat to just hang there while the three screens work all by themselves, putting your hand behind your head, saying to inquisitive people: "I'm working! Look at my screens!"
With the plethora of USB devices, external HDD and VPN mapped as drive letters, I'll soon run out of alphabet. My question might be a bit innocent (the only feeling not yet copyrighted), but what if I store that plagued data on a flash drive? Then I could carry it away along with the songs, right? I could "restore" the rights one another machine and enjoy the beautifully manufactured crap created by big music business?
I have to say that the paradox is perplexing; on one end, they want to make your artists more known, making it as easy to buy a song as to buy a candy bar, and on the other hand, they wish to strangle legitimate users who walk all the way to a record store, spit a yuppie food stamp (20$ bill), and walk away with a high-tech freesbee with some songs on it.
I think I'll buy a 8-track cassette player. I don't think ther have the mark of Sauron on them... yet. Oh, and a lamp-powered amplifier. But I fear they'll put GPS in them.
Talk about ease of use...

Wow... This proved to be the time-waster-of-the-week so far here.
From Astrophysics to Mosquitoes
From Mongol Empire to Benzine
From Love to Planck Constant
Thanks to this (and a couple of beers at lunch), I'm highhandedly responsible to a couple of percentage points of productivity lost this afternoon.

2. Tetris on my cell phone when my three computers à work crash simultaneously
3. Return to Castle Wolfenstein, with its simple yet interesting storyline & action
4. Need For Speed Underground 2, for some slick racing, on my projector
5. Quake III, for some good ol' fraggin'
