Does this mean that a million years from now my Vanagon will have Stalagtites
coming out of the windshield washer ports (if I never wash them that is)?

Seriously, a good suggestion which I will probably use since one of mine is
almost bypassing the windshield all together and aiming for the roof of the
van!  Although it could be fun aiming them to the side and then driving thru
New York city.  Those pesky windshield washer guys would get thier own
windshield washed :)
Sorry for the goofy post.  And it's only Wednesday!
