We've had a long drawn discussion on the best practices for using escalators a while ago with some excellent tips and inputs from persons traveling overseas and in the country facing the often daunting experience of using escalators. I think it was Prateek Agrawal who had initiated the thread. Maybe if you looked up the older posts of the list, all your questions would be answered.
As for using elevators or escalators, it is a personal preference. Some persons are not comfortable using the escalator and feel safer in an elevator, while others prefer things the other way around. I think an escalator is quicker once you've got over the initial hesitation of using it. It is constantly in motion and one rarely needs to wait to use it, while the elevator takes much longer andoften one needs to wait long endless minutes to get onto one. My own views, these.
