I have an ethics question for you: Would it be wrong to swing a mop and broom madly while walking to ward off the entitled male and female runners who barrel down the sidewalk like mobile germ sprinklers? If so, how do you feel about a sandwich board urging obedience to Gozer?

I would add that more than half of the runners I see are doing a great job of respecting the space of people they overtake. The segment that doesn't almost uniformly seems to be hardcore fitness buffs with the silly outfits with the aerodynamics of fighter jets.
