So the next person who used it might not have a full       charge. And yes, there were times they just stopped and left for someone       else to get it and charge it up.        Parking had a gas golf cart which they would use and run out the gas.        Of course they all denied knowing anything about it, never used it, etc.        It reached the point if it were running on fumes on Friday it wasn't filled.        Eventually after a parking garage was built and had a sizable store room it       was locked in there over nig        I recall one time the cops had broken up a fight and cuffed the       offenders to their carts till they could be hauled off.        Joe       --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5        * Origin: Fidonet Messaging Since 1991 bbs.docsplace.org (1:135/392)       SEEN-BY: 1/120 123 14/0 18/0 200 90/1 105/81 116/116 120/340 457 616       SEEN-BY: 123/0 10 25 35 40 115 126 131 150 160 170 180 190 200 257       SEEN-BY: 123/755 124/5016 129/305 135/300 366 371 379 382 383 384       SEEN-BY: 135/385 388 390 391 392 153/7715 154/10 30 40 50 700 203/0       SEEN-BY: 220/80 90 221/0 6 226/18 30 227/114 201 702 229/101 424 426       SEEN-BY: 229/428 452 700 981 1016 1017 240/1120 2100 5138 5411 5824       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 5853 249/206 307 317 400 261/38 280/464 5003 282/1038       SEEN-BY: 288/100 292/854 299/6 300/4 301/1 310/31 317/3 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 423/120 633/280 712/848 770/1 2320/105 2452/250       SEEN-BY: 2454/119 3634/0 12 15 24 27 50       PATH: 135/392 300 3634/12 154/10 280/464 240/5832 229/426           |
