Not sure why you're being so hard on Pittsburgh's sputtering "Occupy" effort. Sure, it would be cool if we had a big riot with burning couches and brutal arrests, but lots of other cities aren't getting their acts together either. At least we're trying.
All the same, existent city laws against upholstered porch furniture should be tightly enforced. There should be a special announcement.
Why do you hate my bottom? Just because this city has a long history with steel doesn't make steel comfortable to sit on.
