When I was very young, I was sure that there was a tiny old man in the traffic lights, and if you hit the button a few extra times, you could trick him into changing the walk-sign a bit quicker. Nowadays, I am fully aware that these lights are run on timers and computers by the city. That's why I always feel a little sorry when I see someone standing at a crosswalk reaming away on the button... It's like, give it up, man; that little old dude retired way back in the 80's.
