Hi Cindy,  Brie does that as well with revolving doors.  It is
terrifying to suddenly be brought into the middle of a door that is
moving, especially when they are the automatic revolving doors.  We
have been nearly squished a number of times.  I wonder what goes
through their heads when they take us into revolving doors.  I guess
they just see an opening and go through it.  But I think Brie just
wants to try something new.
