Well, actually, in most states Steve could just BUY the silly plate with
his name on it.  You're right, he should have asked for the Mercedes right
at the start.  Wait, don't hang up yet, I'm gonna get serious here.
	Oh Lord, won't you buy me
	A Mercedes-Benz
	My friends all drive Porsches
	I must make amends...
(RIP, Janis!  And go listen to the words if you haven't heard it in a while.)

OK, but the serious side of the religious folks' views makes some sense -
God isn't the candyman, and let's not go around testing him with petty
material requests.  How about all you religious folk praying that some of
us over here on the heathen side see the light?  That would fit most of the
criteria.
