Loved these stories Sarah. The elevator story seems appropriate for The Silent Sod as elevators have come to be a place social convention seems to dictate we remain silent in while riding. Attending a conference in LA once a few years at the Doubletree hotel, check in registration was at the top (70th!) floor. So Hollywood, a short black and white film plays on the back wall as you whoosh up or down the building in hopes of keeping you entertained during the ride.
I had a conference in LA, several years back now, that I'm pretty sure took place at the Westin Bonaventure, which has glass elevators with city views. I guess they like to keep you entertained on elevators in LA.
