Mamakos WA3YMH University of Maryland, Computer Science Center > Internet: louie@umd5.arpa > UUCP: {seismo!umcp-cs, ihnp4!rlgvax}!cvl!umd5!louie I have heard of an incident where a guy got a flat tire in NYC.He pulled over to the curb, got out of his car, went to his trunk and proceeded to take out his spare.Meanwhile another guy comes up to the car and opens the hood. The owner ,wondering what the hell is going on, walks around to the front of his car and asks the guy,"What do you think you are doing ?" The guy responds, "Well, if you're taking the spare I'm taking the battery!"
