Make entrances and exits to enclosed public areas like schools, universities, shopping centers, and especially fast-food restaurants accessible only by going up a down-escalator.
A regular up-escalator attended by bus-boys is available to carry any stuff you may have that you can't get up an escalator,
like
heavy groceries (over 30 lbs), strollers, or wheelchairs.
People with medical conditions preventing them from using this can use the regular escalator with a doctor-issued access badge.

I would avoid public places, besides this is a lets all. |

...and really tough on piano movers. |

do you know the piano is on my foot, Mr Shifter? |

An escalator up to a McDonalds still isn't
enough to burn whatever their eating.
They probably have to spend an hour on
the escalator, or just bypass it all and go
through the drive-thru. It might be
cheaper to hire thugs with bats to chase
people in the streets, so that people get
their excercise, but then... they would
definitely not come out of their houses. |

[twitch] I love the idea... Now I have a career to truly aspire to.

Can I use a ninja sword instead of a bat? |
|
|
Sorry, no ninja swords, things might
<ahem> escalate, and they might just
start bringing shotguns when they leave
the house. Wait, I think there's a word to
describe this... ..ahh yes: Anarchy |

I'd really like reverse escalators. |
|
|
Of course the real fun lies with putting Slinky(R) brand spring toys on the up escalators. I wonder what the record is for the longest slinky walk? |
|
|
I dunno... I tried an extensive and exhaustive Google search and couldn't find anything beyond "world's longest slinky". It's 74-ft long. |

Nike did this in shopping centres once. |
