@BrianLehrer People who broke into my car three times over a span of 6 years: not even quarters should be left visible in your car.

@BrianLehrer My workmates. And it was mostly a matter of feeling comfortable in cabs and not being afraid to yell at strangers.

@BrianLehrer ppl on buses/streets: opened doors, helped carry box, gave up seats when pregnant. It's all about sharing public space.
