quicko: elevators

The Australians (and Europeans, come to think of it) seem to have got the idea that, if you don't start counting years until "1," you ought to apply the same rules to floors of buildings. Not only that, they're also convinced that "0" is a weird number to name a floor, so, to cover, they'll call it "G" instead and assume no one will notice the difference. Thank goodness some of us are observant.
