In response to Cheryl's very polite email on escalator etiquette, I just had to share this story (hey, it is Friday): When I first moved to Boston from the South, I'd never been on a subway and escalators were what I used to leisurely get to the next floor in the mall. After a few weeks of living in "the big city," I was on the escalator coming up from the subway with a friend, standing there like I had all day. My friend, not so politely, turned to me and said "It's not a RIDE, Jessi!" From then on, I have either made way for those who were in a bigger hurry than me, or walked up the escalator myself. Good luck and have a great time at SAA! :) Jessi Renfroe MLIS Student, University of Southern Mississippi A posting from the Archives & Archivists LISTSERV List sponsored by the Society of American Archivists, www.archivists.org.
