    Agree with 1:42. When they go totally naked, then restart the coverage, or uncoverage as it may be.

    I wonder at what point in that day do the pant-less ones start to think about putting their pants back on, 1 hour, 1 hour and 8 minutes, when their asses start getting cold, when some weird guy keeps staring at your crotch????

    The No Pants inanity is not much better than SantaCon. It's devolved from a silly non-conformist prank to a worldwide annual phenomenon of Marxist-Lemmingism.

    It isn't even sexy. It certainly isn't funny. It isn't shocking. It isn't creative. It isn't art. It isn't entertainment.

    Worst of all: it certainly isn't hygienic. If you bother to research what invisible vermin live on every surface of a subway interior, you'd keep your pants on and probably wear gloves as well.

    How about a "No Cell Phones/Ipads/Ipods Subway Ride"? Now THAT would be radical. This - this is just stupid.

    Slight change of topic here, but related to that photo: Is there something going on at the former Sea-Salt (was that what it was called?) because I've been seeing construction/contractor peoples go in and out of there lately. Anyone have the low-down?
