I have a question. Actually, two questions. Neither are relevant to anything or the other. However, one is: If someone asks a question and projects it into the blogosphere and nobody reads the post, is it really a question? Fairly existential, don't you think?
The other regards elevator etiquette. You are entering the elevator and you notice someone moving toward the elevator as if to enter. You hold the door and they make it in. They say "thank you" and you mumble or grunt something that substitues for "you're welcome". The question is then whether you are somewhat obligated to continue a conversation with then for the duration of the elevator trip or at the very least say "Have a nice day" or something equally inane to each other when the first one exits? There seems to be some kind of tension to do that when this occurs. Does it matter if other people are on the elevator with you? Does it matter if you are the door holder or holdee? Are there other factors involved? Does anybody think about this but me?
I know there were more than two questions.
More elevator questions on subsequent posts.
