I would be careful with your correlation-causation-relationship.
And I'll be careful driving when the rain first starts.

What else does @sockbot do? And does it respond to other people too?at the moment, not much. it pretty much responds if you @summon it or rolls dice.
'm working on making him do more interesting things as well.
I thought it rolled socks...
How much oil do your cars leak? And the hydrocarbons of asphalt are that stable that you usually have hell of a time to get them moving; i.e. you need around 500 °C. And there are virtually no short hydrocarbons left in asphalt.
I've driven the stretch of road ijij is referring to and there are enough cars that travel that way that a tiny amount from each car would be enough. You can believe what you want about the stability of hydrocarbons, but I know that the roads are more slippery in the first hour of rain.
Correct. New York added a $6 fee a few years back specifically so the inspector would check if the gas cap is on tight. Dripping fluids won't fail you, unless it's gasoline.
If there's enough oil dripping to fail an inspection, your car isn't going to be running for long.
Found out today that they're going to be cramming a couple hundred more people into our building which will mean doubling up in offices... makes the cubicles seem like heaven in comparison, even with the "open space concept".

Agree to disagree.
I have my initials and my last name (@hotmail.com) as my email address, no numbers or anything, so I understand why you were impressed. I've had the same email address for 22 years.
I doubt my parents saw The Green Berets, so maybe Rosemary's Baby? That's a scary thought.
Asphalt contains some oil, but cars drip oil all of the time. The first hour or so of rain will be much more slippery than the later part of a rainy day because the oil hasn't washed off of the road yet.
Yes. And you've probably never come across the term because you've probably never had the misfortune of having to drive in New Jersey, which is more or less the only place where they have such a stupid thing.They tried to add one here in Dallas a year or two ago. I don't get out that way much but I believe people basically ignore it in favor of the left turn lane that's always been there.
A jughandle AND a left turn lane? That is a WTF.
The intersection was retrofitted to add a jughangle; the left turn lane was to be blocked with cones or barrels. I actually haven't been there since it happened so I don't know what the deal is; someone told me everyone's ignoring the jughandle, even though the cops will supposedly ticket you for not using it.
I live in New Jersey, so I get jughandles (and circles... gasp) and we constantly have drivers from other states turning left from the left lane, ignoring all of the no turn signs and the honking drivers that (usually) almost crash into them from behind.
Everyone who sits around me knows how much I love "but it works for me". I get to say, "It doesn't work for me, and it has to, so you have to fix it." I guess you don't get to say that?
