re: #284 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))
When I was visiting my GF near Düsseldorf (second weekend in March just before restrictions were imposed) I walked up the four flights of stairs to her apartment rather than share an elevator with anyone.
I prefer stairs myself when available. Not because I’m afraid of germs, but because elevators send my claustrophobia through the roof. I only use them when I need to.
