He thinks they were put there by a concerned citizen frustrated by the bad driving habits of their fellow, uh, Bouldarians(?). No, Google says people from Boulder are called “Boulderites.” I don’t like that. Bouldarians is better.

Suddenly, the article's author, with a steel chair! I guess, rereading, the whole article's pretty casual, but I just wasn't expecting the first person pov.
