Whenever you see an unclaimed property, what is the first thought in you mind [If you noticed that item and if the thing is nice :D] "Who left this here?" and certainly you want to look around for the probable owner. Somehow there is a joy if nobody is likely to be the one :D. Now the next thing is the courage of touching it. You slowly move towards it and at the last moment two persons pop out of your head "Evil" and "Angel"
So what does Evil say [his words are precise and will not confuse you in any sense] "If that person does not care then why do you, come on! come on! take it"
And now the Angel one starts murmuring in its defense "You are not the real owner, this thing does not belong to you. Don't touch it!"
Evil insists and give a logic - "Now-a-days no one cares about anyone else, if you were the owner it would have gone by now, go on pick it up you fool. If you won't, then some one else would."
Angel now touches a nerve - "You would be sad if your precious thing had lost in such a way, so don't do such thing which you don't expect for yourself, so don't take it."
And it goes on, now you need to decide which side you want to be on and somehow it matters how early you choose your side.
So the very first thought matters a lot.
What I stated as Evil might not be the "Evil" in many cases and hence it makes the differences.
Somehow even if you don't pick that object yet the time taken in deciding matters. Many times your actions are not everything that represents you, self satisfaction matters.
