... not to mention the evolution of what sociologist Marc Auge refers to as "non-places": large public areas that seem to bridge inside and outside such as malls, airports and even the lobbies of large buildings (thus the confusion about evelators and bars etc.) I tend to wear brimmed hats often and therefore remove them in malls etc because I can see around me a little better.
