Subject:Re: Squareback Security Was: Vanagon Security Challange...

I have a funny story that breaking into a Squareback reminded me of.
A preacher friend told me a story about when he was going through Bible school
he was really broke and was living hand to mouth.  One night, in the middle of
the night, he hears his Squareback start up and by the time he gets out of bed
the car was gone.  Stolen!  So he was so disgusted that he just got back into
bed and went back to sleep.
The next day he looked outside and the car was back.
Taped to the steering wheel was $20 and a note.
The note said, "I needed to borrow your car last night.  Here is $20 for your
trouble and I filled the tank up for you."  The note wasn't signed.
He said every night after that he left it unlocked with a note on the steering
wheel that said, "Borrow it anytime!"
