A trusted small-engine/implement shop nearby has been educating their customers for some time on the false economy of not opening the wallet to the extra pennies involved in taking these steps, especially when people winterize their stuff or move from mowers to snow blowers. He's told me it's not where he makes his money anyway so he'd frankly not be presented with the proverbial "won't start" service tag when spring or the first snow comes. (As an aside, the biz is a father passed down to son being taught to grand-son operation, all solid folks; a fine & rare enough thing to see in the modern small-business climate.)

True enough. I would add thanks to those who espoused completely abstaining from the vote and/or advocating "burn it all down"
but did it anyway & just don't want to admit around the town coffee shop that the action didn't equal their rhetoric. Perhaps bought a bit more time; you did alright, so go enjoy your coffee.
