Today science has progressed a lot, but this has many problems. One of the problems is pollution.

While there's a section that has welcomed the idea, calling it a positive step forward to control the alarming rise in pollution in the city, there's also a vast number of people who are labelling this move as impractical, pointing out lack of public transport as one of the reasons why it will never work out. Even though both sides of the argument have perfectly valid points, one must realise that there are more cons than pros to this initiative.<br> This isn't the first time something like this is happening in the world. Road space rationing can be traced back to as early as 45 BC by none other than the Shakespearean hero Julius Caesar had enforced it.

<a name="foo"> doesn't use a #; that's how you reference it. (I disabled interpretation of your HTML to avoid having it break the page.) --Tardis (talk) 04:08, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not only are you asking us to do your homework, which is against one of our few rules, you paste in this god awful block of code, with no formatting or context, and you are studying website code? I give you an F. Vespine (talk) 05:56, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Notably, why does the HTML even have MsoNormal in it? Are you supposed to be using MS Office to help you generate the HTML or if you aren't using MS Office why did you add these? (If you are using MS Office and aren't supposed to, no further comment is needed.) Nil Einne (talk) 15:43, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Landline telephone amplifiers?[edit]

I have a landline telephone setup (single line, nothing fancy) that doesn't get a great signal. I've tried to look online (Google, Bing) for a device that I could plug the line in (from network interface device) to and plug the house wiring into to get the amplified signal. Do they make things like this? If so, is there a name for them I'm missing? When I search for this I get cell phone products. I'm using United States style telephones and telephone wiring. Thanx. 104.229.143.192 (talk) 23:58, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Because of the way telephones work, it is much easier to amplify the signal going to the handset instead of the signal from the wall to the phone. Here are some typical products:

You can also complain to the phone company and ask them to send louder audio. --Guy Macon (talk) 05:18, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Many many years ago, I did a lot of audio-visual work, which included landline telephones (which were just called telephones at the time). I was asked to turn up the volume on phones many times. The problem always turned out to be static on the line, making it hard to hear the audio. So, the problem wasn't the audio volume, it was the static. Static on telephone lines is common. It can be a loose connection - which is an easy fix - or an old wire that has corroded - which requires rerunning new wires. Once I got rid of the static, the phone's volume was just fine. So, I wonder if this is truly a case of low phone audio or loud static. 199.15.144.250 (talk) 12:34, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am considering running new lines because of this. Thanx for the information both of you. 104.229.143.192 (talk) 20:53, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As a note, I found some things called "long loop adapters" or "loop current boosters", which look like what I may have been after. 104.229.143.192 (talk) 21:13, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
