Author’s Notes:
The men’s room in the entrance of Berlin’s Tempelhof subway station had quite a reputation in the 80s. More than a few American airmen used it as a convenient place to meet German men interested in sex. I didn’t realize that until one night in the mid 80s when nature called rather urgently; I found myself in the middle of a cruising scene. I may have been as startled as Ian and Dima, but certainly not as frightened. Also, while the place had a sort of hustler’s reputation, I never witnessed that personally. For all I know, the rumor may not have been true. But given a hook for a funny line, I went with it.
