art imitating life
Actually, I'm very conscious of that. I'll look, smile to myself, if eye contact is made, I smile at them, maybe say Hi, then make sure I turn away so as not to "invade their privacy". BUT, on the other hand, doing that makes them think you have no interest, which is not always the case. But you never know how the individual will react. Some enjoy the attention, others would rather poke your eye out!
I think you are very smart
