I noticed in a few places here someone had the bright idea to build outside escalators..... They didn't last for very long. Things like that tend to fail a LOT in the cold & rain.
I do LOVE the flat ones in airport terminals though. They SO reminded me of the moving sidewalks in early Robert Heinlein stories.
LOL, indeed...
