At that point, I am tempted to just hand these people a quarter, "here, take it, buy a fresh new copy on me, really!"....why do people do that, is it the satisfaction that it's free? The thrill of the "hunt"?....
I wonder if the answer to your question is substantially different than when those seemingly normal-looking, mostly hispanic professionals on commuter trains turn into a pack of wild dogs rooting around in garbage bins for a .25 cent tabloid newspaper.
