Holy hand grenades..........
Next time I'll say > "stopped on track"
Yup.
Choice of words can be a problem such that misunderstandings result.
Example from a few years ago:
I'm a corner worker at Daytona turn 6. A car spins coming out of it, stalls and stops on track........30 seconds later it still can't get going. Waving yellow.
I call in on the radio > "Turn 6 to race control, blue car # 40, dead in the water."
Oops!
I was quickly reminded to not use a certain word that might quite arouse a heck of a response among other parts of the support team, especially if they only heard part of my announcement.
and then there's the part of the first Men in Black movie where the "bug" asks the shop keeper > "Where do you keep your dead?" and the reply was > "I don't have any dead."
