Re: Some miserable SOB got my gas again!
Wow I never heard of that trick!
Years ago some one told me of a trick.
Which was to put a stretched out condom
into the gas tank. Apparently it would
eventually block the gas intake which
then the car would quit. After a few minutes
(After it started to float away from the intake)
it would start again only to become clogged
and quit again.
As I never tied it. (A dirty trick to play on your enemies) I don't know
if it actually does it.
Maybe something for mythbusters.

Re: Some miserable SOB got my gas again!
Reminds me of a story I heard about a friend of a friend.. Someone kept
stealing the radio out of his van, even with his alarm.. The criminal
would simply grab ahold of the rear of the unit, and rip it out in a
downward motion. On the 3rd install of radios, he attached some razor
blades to the back of the unit. A couple nights later, he awoke the
alarm yet again, but when he went out to the van, he still had a
radio.. and a very bloody van to clean up.
The other benefit to this type of security would be that he could
probably call local hospitals and ask for the guy who had recently been
admitted for severe hand wounds. :)
