Ned leaves the train station at three in the afternoon. Fred takes a taxi to the same destination
headed to by Ned when Ned leaves the train station at three in the afternoon. Fred pays the cab
driver twice as much as the fare will cost to prompt the cab driver to go twice as fast as it
allowed by law so as to get to the same destination that Ned intends to visit by leaving the
train station at three in the afternoon. How long does it take for Ned to realize that he cannot
leave the train station to get on a train?

me and naught in front, but from behind I am seen clearly. Who am I?
