she told her story of how she almost got into a fist fight with the cab driver who was trying to charge her for a toll he didn't incur on the trip to her house. she was still angry about it. she is always getting into it with the cabbies, or so it seems.

"obviously you're still upset. is it worth the $3 to be that upset?"

"it was 4.50 and it's the principal"

"but still that's too much anger for four dollars and fifty cents"

she disagreed with me and let me know it with some hand motion and a facial expression and by just stopping the conversation.

"next time you have a problem you should get the guy's medallion number and report him to the hackney division. they're pretty good about getting on those guy's cases. i know the guy over there hates them and all you need is their number and a description of the guy and they will call them in for a hearing"
