How Polite Are We?
-
we dropped a folder full of papers in 20 busy locations to see if anyone would help pick them up. So, which city emerged as the most polite and which as the rudest? Here's what we discovered: The Top Three: New York, Zurich, Toronto But being in a hurry isn't always a barrier to helping people. Tests carried out during morning rush hours produced almost as many positive results as those performed off-peak.

That's ambiguous. Tell you what. Drop a hundred $20's in any of those cities, and see how many you get back. Marc Pensieve

That reminds me of a funny story. When we were young kids, my brother found a $100 bill on the floor in a bathroom during a camping trip. Naively - but honestly - he asked the first adult he ran across if they lost that $100 bill. And sure enough, my brother was lucky enough to find one person in a million on the first try. :rolleyes: Jeremy Falcon
