All,
Just a word of warning about accountants trying to be practical with cars...
Which makes me wonder - anyone watched a lawyer try this kind of thing ??

Hello
I went over to assist someone jump-starting a car in an office parking lot the
other day. He handed me the cables to connect to the "dead" vehicle - told me '
black to positive, red to negative" when I queried this I was told this is how
he always did it. His reasoning was that, in book-keeping, red ink denoted a
negative balance and black ink a positive one. The moral of the story - Double
check if you're being jump-started by an accountant.
