    Horrific just doesn't quite capture that one.

    Don't think I've ever even heard of that happening before. Horrific is right.

    Seems like there have been several NYC elevator accidents in recent years -- product of the bad economy?

    I am afraid of elevators and escalators. I simply use the stairs.

    Yeah, me too. I got stuck on an escalator for three hours once when the power went out.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    ...They are stairs...I dont like them because I have a fear of getting a shoe lace or something caught. As for elevators, I got stuck in once..twice. Which is why I dont like them. Granted I was only stuck for a few minutes both times but was enough to freak me out.
