Today, as always, my son and I wore masks on the way in and out of the complex.

On the way in, we passed about 100 people, not one of whom was wearing a mask. On the way out, we passed a similar number. Only two were wearing masks.

Maybe it's not a big deal -- we were outside and not in prolonged contact. But damn, it sure seems irresponsible.
