A Car and a Human

Of all other differences, one stands apart.
A car can produce light, through its lamps.
Few humans in the recorded history of the entire universe is known to have emitted light.
Almost every car on roads or garages does that.
That is because a car is supposed to work in the dark too. In the night, inside tunnels.
And an animal like human is supposed to sleep in the night and live in more well-lit places than tunnels.
I don't know of human. Now that he has a car which can shine light, he may go to darker places.
We should respect cars.

Convergence of Train and Time

Once Ambi was waiting for his train. An LED screen displayed 1244, which was the number of the next train to be arrived. A guy sitting nearby looked at the number and asked: "The time is quarter to one, right?"
Ambi looked at it and replied to him, smiling: "Brother, that thing does not show time."
He asked, feeling a little hurt:" Then what is it showing?"
"It is showing the train number.", Ambi explained.
"Oho", he showed a villager's embarrassment.
A little later, recovering from it, he asked: "What is the time, then?"
As there was no watch, Ambi looked at another LED display, which was actually showing time.

What Ambi saw is this: 12:45


This incident would later contribute heavily to Ambi's theory regarding convergence of train numbers and time at noon.
What kind of theory is that?
