first off, this: ![http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=3086&stc=1&d=1193707818](http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=3086&stc=1&d=1193707818) needless to say, we took the elevator, because it sounds like the stair results in a long drop … multiple small stairs \> one big stair the same parking ramp had a sign at the exit that included the word “traffice” and today i saw that radio shack is having a “limitited time” offer on their cell phones … i had to say something about it when the sales man asked me “will there be anything else today?” the blank stare i got makes me think he was the one the made the sign 🙂 ---
