Interesting Trick

I'm in the knowledge commons at one of the "stand while you type" computers and I just saw an interesting thing. The computer next to me had been empty for a while, having been vacated by a skinny blonde girl, a few minutes ago. Another girl comes up and starts using the computer, but then, a few moments later, an east indian guy comes up to her and taps her on the sholder and informs her that he was using the computer. What?! Who the hell does that? Anyway, he checked his e-mail or something and left. The next person in line came up and started using the terminal and then about 4 minutes later the guy comes back again and does the same thing over. In both cases, the girl using the terminal just appologetically stepped aside and got back in line. It's pathetic.
