Overheard on the loudspeakers in Park St. station today (and oddly enough, for once I could understand what they were saying):

"Attention ladies and gentlemen: For the safety and sanity of your fellow passengers, no smiling is permitted on MBTA platforms or trains at any time. No smiling, please!"

The introduction of those airport style loudspeakers and security announcements is a major PITA. I detest airports and anything that reminds me of them. Especially futile but annoying security measures meant to reassure the sheeple.
