Ha, just got off the phone. My friend's Miata died a few miles from here.
AAA told him the battery was OK, so he was asking me what the problem was
(like I could diagnose it over the phone -- I suggested the alternator,
anyway). He was having it towed home, then would have to have it towed to
his mechanic on Monday. I offered him my MGB for the weekend, with the
caveat that he'd probably have to apply the hammer from time to time. He
said no thanks...
