EverWonder™ why when traffic is moving the slowest, they call it the Rush Hour?

I was sitting for two hours in completely stopped traffic this morning! One hell of a Rush hour. Thankfully it was raining and cool and I had my iPod :)

Ever Wonder ? #1


I must've seen half a million movies in which the protagonist is desperately trying to break into a computer system to stall some impeding apocalypse/holocaust/Death of life as we know it. So s/he types in this wrong password, and s/he sees this HUGE red rectangle with font size 200 text saying "Access Denied". And then just in the nick of time the hero/ine just "gets" the correct password. EverWonder™ Why the computer returns a HUGE green rectangle with font 200 "Access Granted"? Every time a regular user logs in with his password, does the computer celebrate the access with the green screen instead of redirecting to the page where s/he could get some work done?
