Sorry about all the evil. :(

For next time -- the alternator belt died when it grabbed a chunk of rag
and dragged it through the pulley.  It just hadn't fallen down yet.  And as
Dennis explained, ALT light coming on is a *stop right now* emergency until
you have determined that the belt is not the reason for the light coming on.

Yrs,
