What ever happened to America "Land of the Free Home of the Brave"? It just comes down to destiny. What ever happened in those situations happened for a reason. It was just meant to be. Her need to pee caused her to let the machine hit while she was yes "peeing". Isn't VP random anyway. Who's to say if she stayed she would of hit anyway. It's random. So holding a machine/seat/chair/spot in front of the machine just doesn't matter. It hits to whom and when it wants.

Ok, dude. Lots of crazies out there. Does Bev agree that you should

much more cowardly. Peace. Call security but don't put yourself at
risk. I can see the headlines now.
I'll grant you that much (re the crazies), Scot 
But, without
making too much of it, my guess is that (generally speaking) you're
probably inclined to bare your teeth in more situations than I am.
(Most are.)
Here's my point -- It's my sense that that when the guy said he was
going to have a seat until the woman returned that the other people
involved pretty much rolled over without any argument -- because they
felt that had no stake whatsoever in the situation. I'm not
suggesting an exercise of "prowess" ... just to express that it wasn't
appropriate, having effectively given the woman the idea that they
would do just that. If the guy still insisted, let it go -- at least
they hadn't just shrugged their shoulders with a "well, that's her
problem".
But I'm really beating a dead horse at this point ... I don't expect I
need have clarified these thoughts.
