Well, you also have to keep in mind that if the place is dead, your server might be cut, and they can't leave until you do. If I'm taking up a table for more than the "normal" dining time, yeah...I overtip. It's a "camping fee."
(I suppose I should also mention that I'm a server, which probably colors my opinion a bit.)
