Generally, florries in a lab are working lights. Why would you need to dim
them?


Because that's what the designers of the new lab said we need, you don't think they'll ask us users do you ?
I didnlt think we needed auto on lights in teh toilets either, or the taps which use PIR , which means yuo canlt adjust teh water temperature for yourself up or down or the lifts where you have to tell it what floor before you get in it and then wait for the lift that goes to that floor.


I assume that if several people are waiting to go to different floors
they can all press different buttons, so why can't one person press all
the buttons that go to all the floors on the way to the one he wants?


Why would you want the lift stopping at every floor ?
If a studetn want to go to the 7th floor then why would they press to go to floor 1 ,2 ,3 ,4 5, 6, ?

When I use the lift I just press the button for the floor I want to go to.


How do you use a lift ?
