Car Update

Okay, my starts 8:30 in the morning when it's 17 degrees outside. After running for a hour, and being off for 15 minutes, it refuses to start. Twelve hours later, when it's back to 17 degrees, I march outside with a roll of aluminum foil and my fingers crossed. I try turning the car on before my scientific experiment, and it starts. I'm both relieved and disappointed. Metal, battery acid, and 99 cents Giant-brand aluminum foil may be a bad idea, but it would make a good story.
