Guys, I swear there is something evil out there in the air that is trying to 
keep us from our appointed destiny on the salt.......  Last night I was 
preparing to replace a fuel return line from the regulator to the tank... a 10 
foot single interrupted piece of -8 braided line. So... I snip the line, put 
the fitting over the line, chuck it in the vise and start threading the cutter 
into the fitting..... when I smelled smoke. Seems my 10' line was resting on 
the positive terminal of a spare Optima battery sitting on the floor and just 
burned a gaping hole in  my brand new line..... What the hell are the odds of 
THAT happening????  80 bucks up in smoke, plus the price of the beer to calm me 
down........
