And, forgot to add, I now keep a fire extinguisher in the trunk of my car
ever since the engine of my 81 firebird caught fire 3 years ago - IN THE
CULVERS DRIVE THROUGH!
It was actually sort of funny in retrospect
Drive through guy: "Welcome to Culvers, what can I get for you today?"
Me: "A ****ING FIRE EXTINGUISHER!"
I can't say I miss that car too much with all the trouble it caused.
Anyway, back on topic...

if I have some sort of safety net with me, I never need it ;)
Which is why I have about 100kg of tools in the boot of my car *all the
time*. And spare spare spare sound cards and the like...
