And the peer pressure foot came down hard. NO ONE is unmasked anymore. The toughs and the salts are going out of their way to flaunt their masks. I had two mask free rides through town and then had to put it back on. Otherwise, when things change again there will be an obvious scapegoat.
I'm going into the city in a few minutes and expect to see a radical difference there.
