24. If someone presses all of the buttons on an elevator, you can avoid stopping on each floor by pressing each button again twice.

I have never actually tried this, Avinash. I know when I was younger I was over at Leonard's department store. Dad was carrying me in his arms because there were a lot of people on the elevator. I reached over and swiped my hand across all the buttons.

Sure enough they all lit up, but then the elevator grinded to a halt. We were there for 2-hours with everyone giving me the evil eye. After that, Dad who is quite good at electronics made me this gizmo box. It had switches, dials, buttons, switches, lights, and a speaker. It did all kinds of things depending upon what dial you set it to, buttons you pressed, and switches you flipped.

Dad made it so I would mess with it instead of electronics when we were out shopping - and - it worked, at the time it was deeply fascinating - that little gizmo box he made for me.

Quite a story :) I checked with some they said most of the time it works.

I'll definitely have to remember that. Oh, who got us out of the elevator ? The fire department. And when they asked who did it. They all pointed to me - and I cried - I think I was 4-years old at the time - and I crashed my first computer. :)
