This is my honest answer: the elevator into which less people are
streaming. Having taken elevators a lot for decades without a single
unpleasant incident of any kind - ever ever ever - it's difficult for me to
relate to such a dilemma. This question reminds me of a ream of questions I
was once asked to fill out during jury selection for a double-murder trial.
I remember one of them: Do you know any black people?
