- Thanks for all the replies, I figured out what was needed, and
- also learned some interesting things about how usenet news handles
- formatting and how condescending some folks can be and how nice others
- can be.

- BubbleGumHack: The wiper fluid wouldn't work on my '81 VW Rabbit, and
- my windscreen was covered in road salt, so I had to pull over to wipe
- it off with napkins (ALWAYS keep your napkins from drive-thru!). I
- looked under the hood to see if my fluid was empty, and the reservoir
- was _F_u_l_l_! so I checked the line from the reservoir to
- the nozzle and lo and behold, a hole! so, luckily I was chewing gum
- at the time, so I took it out of my mouth, wrapped it round the hole,
- and had a clean windscreen! And the gum stayed there until I totaled
- the car, I guess it froze on and stuck!
- alright, not much, but better than nuttin.
