Interesting, I just read an article in the SF Chronicle about a study of the
relative "helpfulness" of cities' denizens. A stooge would read a map in public
and generally look lost. Each city was toted up for how often someone would
offer help. I don't remember how Chicago rated, but San Francisco and Denver
both did poorly. Ah, there's another knock for my original and adoptive home
towns!
