9:58::BOLT the Door

We had a professor in college during our final year of Engineering; Prof. Shere who used to teach the subject Power Electronics.

He used to be very punctual about time, and attendance; his used to be the first class of the day @ 10am;

Prof. Shere had a habit of coming to the class atleast 5 mins before the scheduled lecture time, and with about a couple of minutes to go to the start, he used to close the door to the class...

One of his instructions has been ringing in my ears for sometime now;
The instruction was:
"Its 9:58 now; BOLT the door!"

How ironic that the World 100m record was broken sometime back in precisely 9.58 seconds by a guy named Usain Bolt!


People sometimes have the knack of predicting the future (unknowingly) I guess....
