I didn't mean you made up the story. I don't doubt that you panicked
and sat in Quiznos for an hour, missing your meeting. Sorry if I gave
that impression. What is not understandable is why you did what you
did. The L.A. Mall is adjacent to City Hall and City Hall East. The
farthest away you can park is one block. You said you had walked
nearly a block when you heard this guy, which means you were within
easy reach of the doors to one of those buildings, where security is
obviously present. Why didn't you just keep going to your meeting?
That's what I don't understand. -aem
