Thom,
	While I am sure this was quite a frustrating ordeal, I must admit
that I'm *mildly* impressed with any shop that cancels 20 hours of labour,
agrees to pay for the labour to fix it, and hands you a new battery. If
nothing else, that shows their hearts and business sense is toward the 
consumer; even if they make mistakes.
