I was mauled by a dog when I was a child. As an adult, I have met individual dogs that I was able to like (one of them works in my office building, in fact), but I will never be able to like them in general.
In Seattle, we did it in reverse — the elevator on the Space Needle (which is on the outside of the stem, therefore visible) would make a timed ascent, and reach the top at exactly midnight. Cue flashing lights and fireworks. I haven’t lived there for a long time, but I hope they still do it the same way.
Cool!!
