Must be conservation of chaos. I went out to the garage to work on the 
FV last weekend and had to get the furnace started, which required going 
into the house, starting the oil pump, going out to the garage, moving 
the GT6, moving the lawn tractor (which was later used to jump start the 
MR2) burning out whatever had nested in the combustion chamber of the 
furnace, starting the MR2, moving the trailer, driving the MR2 out, 
putting the trailer back, moving the TR6 to get the hoist out, putting 
it back in place, unloading the FV, finding a place to put all the FV 
body panels, all before pulling the engine, normally a 45 minute 
procedure....
