(nothing to do with what follows)
I was at my quasi-internship today and there was a big meeting involving lots of people from places other than Cement-ville USA and as they walked past me I noticed something funny. I was sitting at a corner that they all had to turn and, being somewhat like that, I looked each of them in the eye as they walked by. The white North Americans all ignored me or looked away from me. The Africans and Middle Easterners met my eyes, smiled, and said hello.
Interesting.
