on elevators

An eight-page article at the New Yorker on elevators does not sound interesting, but it really is. Learn about how responsive those door close buttons are and about the latest in smart-elevator technology, and read of Nicholas White’s 41-hour elevator ride. Frightening video evidence of that ride is also available.

You can be assured I will be trying to immerse myself in the Captivate Network on the way to and from work tomorrow morning.
