    Fiats! Not to divert the thread, but you may enjoy this. Long ago, our sysadmin, instructor, PhD student, and all-around useful guy drove the old, canonical oxidized-blue Fiat (I said they were all blue, but he claimed he had a yellow one for parts).

    Anyway, driving north out of Loveland, CO, his engine caught fire. There were some houses along the road and, as he pulled over, he saw a lawn with a garden hose. He stopped, ran to turn on the water, and pulled the hose to the car. Just then, the fire burned something, engaged the starter, the Fiat crawled out of range of the hose, and thereby committed suicidio.

    Anyway, congratulations on stepping up a bit!
