What does that say about our priorities?

"Free" piles are prevalent in Portland, too. I'm sure these folks that put up the little kiosk might have thought that someone would think the chair was free too; but perhaps they had a different purpose in mind - sit down, browse through the free books and take the ones that caught their eye, all at the recipients leisure. Things can be pretty casual up here.
Hence the chain? Or, maybe they lost three rocking chairs and finally had to resort to locking it up. I don't know.
