When I get a lot of reaction to my gear, this always comes to mind:
It’s interesting, I get all of this reaction online – yet I hardly see it in the real world. I know part of it is that I am oblivious to being cruised, but I also wonder how much of it is other people not being forward and reacting in real life. This is the dichotomy that I don’t understand.
Is it because people can be anonymous online and they feel there is less risk? Am I that intimidating all geared up?

As I sit here watching the sunrise on Caltrain I realize it is time to start another work week.
