Walking up the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on a sunny summer day, I am greeted by dozens if not hundreds of people sitting on its “front steps” (see Fig. 6.1). The steps are directed eastward which means that, any time after noon, visitors sit in the blistering sun. While all three of the other sides are now at least partially shaded, this is where most people sit.

The steps are directed eastward which means that, any time after noon, visitors sit in the blistering sun. While all three of the other sides are now at least partially shaded, this is where most people sit.
