We got an email at work today:

I was notified by building management that the stairwells are intended for emergency use only. They will not be liable for any accidents that happen when an employee is using them for any reason other than their intended purpose.

I think it's a conspiracy by the folks at Lazyboy to make us all fat.

Just as well, really, since my knee hasn't been the same since the wonderful They Might Be Giants show wednesday, and they've almost given out on me just walking across my office, much less going down stairs.
