I agree that being confrontational about it is both undesirable and unsatisfying. Ditto being angry about it.
Simply sitting in long-vacant chairs that are part of a saved lot and that no one is around to either occupy or attend is the most ethical response, in my view, as it protects the integrity of our community and raises the standards of expected behavior.

You are right, P, always right and even when I think you are wrong you are right. BUT.............
What if some lady comes up to me when I am sitting on that chair and says..."THAT IS MY CHAIR! WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY CHAIR???"
What is going to keep me from instinctively jumping up and saying...
"Oh, I am so sorry!", like we were taught in Ohio????
