[BC] People asking questions....

[Craft, Van]

Reminds me of when I had a friend come pick me up at the McCormick
Center to go back to college.  When they dropped me off there they
didn't see anything out of the ordinary, when they picked me up they
were ready to get out of there.

In a neighborhood of ill-repute, I learned this.  I went around once,
then came back to the same spot a 2nd time.  A couple locals came up and
asked what I was doing.  I told them I was measuring the radio signals
of their favorite hip-hop station.  They said..."cool"...and advised
that I was being "watched".  Had I not answered them with a reasonable
answer, the third time around would be less "receptive".

I then asked why me? They said I was out of place and alone.  Like a cop
or rival ganger snooping.  They suggested getting a woman to ride with
me to be less obvious.

At which point, I determined the only time I will do radials in certain
parts of the city is early Saturday and Sunday mornings and with a woman
passenger writing down the data.  The woman part makes it look less
threatening...
