Gospel of the GOAT

Genius is strange

Just curious, why is this channel called Omnibus, a Latin term generally used to identify public modes of transportation over paved roads? It would be the equivalent of calling a channel guagua in Spain. I understand that omnibus essentially means "to all" all encompassing. I guess that makes sense. Still, in many countries it just means mode of mass public transport.

[@MrVorpalsword]

well you might have more grasp of Latin with your name than I do (my real surname is Harwood) ... but doesn't omnibus also mean 'FOR all', hence the 'bus is a means of transport for all, rather than a horse or a car'? Likewise the producers of this programme ambitiously made it for anyone to watch? 'What's in a name, a rose by any other name would smell as sweet?' you're called 'Christian' I'm sure you weren't a Christian when they gave you the name, I daresay you had no opinion on religion back then, You're called Alvarez - is your Dad called Alvaro, or was he a misnomer?

If it was that building here in LA area by doheny each apt would cost at least $4m by now

AC “How much would it cost to be free?”…..FLW “It would cost you less to be free than to be stupid…”

What is Omnibus?

[@jacoolckers6465]

A good example of an omnibus would be like 3 James Bond books in 1 book format.

FLW was the PT Barnum of architecture.
