Hmmmm.....maybe what you note below is exactly what happened to the Mad German when he was "kidnapped" by Policia??????? I expect stranger things have happened????

If things have really gotten to the point that you need to take a taxi for the ONE BLOCK to the Presidente, then IMHO one should really start really re-evaluating whether one should be in the Gulch at all. Wouldn't a deranged tico novio or esposo just as easily lay in wait with his knife on the sidewalk right outside the doors of the HDR and attack his chica as you're hailing down a cab? How many of the chicas stepping out of the HDR with their gringo catches have been similarly attacked? Is this some sort of epidemic situation that we need to be aware of and on guard against? Or is this just another in a long line of stories of violence all over the Gulch and San Jose? If you're walking with a chica from the HDR to someplace like the SL, then you may be well advised to take a cab just as you've always been well advised to, but as a protection against MUGGERS not jealous esposos.
