         12 . The seating device of  claim 1 , wherein the seat release mechanism comprises:
 (a) at least one support arm attached to the seat portion;   (b) a locking pin to selectively lock the support arm in place;   (c) a spring operatively connected to the locking pin; and   (d) a button that selectively compresses the spring to release the locking pin and allow the support arm to rotate.   
     
     
         13 . A seating device, comprising:
 a seat portion connected to an elongated support body by at least one seat attachment device,
 wherein the seat attachment device includes a seat release mechanism, and 
 wherein the seat attachment device is operable to selectively lock the seat portion in at least one of a position that is substantially parallel to the elongated support body and a position that is substantially perpendicular to the elongated support body; and 
   not more than one collapsible leg connected to the support body, the collapsible leg operable to be selectively moved into the support body,
 wherein the collapsible leg telescopes into the support body, 
 wherein a leg release mechanism is operatively connected to the collapsible leg and the support body, and 
 wherein the leg release mechanism is operable to selectively engage and disengage the collapsible leg with the support body. 
   
     
     
         14 . The seating device of  claim 13 , wherein the collapsible leg includes at least one base.
