Wow!  I hope I NEVER have to go through that.

RW> Well, nearly all business is usually at the expense of the average
RW> citizen. It's how you 'gouge' them that counts. I and my dad always
RW> charged a fair price for our services.
 
And that is all the customer wants, with some exceptions.
 
RW> Don't tell my employer, but today a man from the apartments at the

RW> story about how he and his wife have been unemployed since the
RW> Owen-Corning glass manufacturer shut down their plant in this area. How
RW> they didn't have the money to spend on luxury items (although he had
RW> alcohol on his breath) and that they needed their Dodge pickup unlocked.
RW> Would I open it and they'd pay me next week when his wife got her
RW> unemployment check. I opened it and told him not to worry about paying
RW> me.
RW> Maybe I'm a sucker for a sob story, maybe not. But I definately have a

Good for you.  I would have done the same.
 
RW> That gas won't evaporate in your tank as readily as it will theirs. Your

Well, in defense of my statement, the temps here all this week are going to
average 92F.  If that isn't a catalist, I don't know what is, but you're
right -- the gas has nowhere to go.  Besides, the service station tanks are
in the ground where they remain at a relatively cooler temperature, just
like well water. My car's fuel system must be okay because the only time I
see that on the dislay is when I first turn the ignition on and it goes out
after engine start to let me know that at least that light is working.  I
also have a push button on the dash that does a system check when I press
it.  I did that just yesterday and discovered I have 58% of oil life left.

Nice to know I have an efficient fuel system.  Thanks.
