How New Yorkers Walk
Type A New Yorker: If a red light stops you, zigzag with green lights. If either direction to destination is blocked, wait impatiently at corner, checking blackberry.
Type B New Yorker: Go straight, turn left. Enjoy the melody of the city.
Tourist: Excuse me? Do you know which way to first avenue?

Billy:
I’m Type A1 in that I believe it is vital to also cross often in between the blocks, and not wait for the corner green light, if it can work for your strategic advantage.
