It was one of those "learning curve" things.  Only did it once, but
it was REAL inconvenient.  Did I tell you about the first time I used
my airless paint sprayer without adjusting the pressure? I dusted
most of the neighborhood.  No big deal other than the guy who
had two black Mercedes.  They were parked in an alley 150 feet
away.  I had to claim that one on my homeowner's insurance.
