now that's determination

One more thing tonight: After I started the car to drive home tonight, I noticed I had a snail on my windshield. Snails apparently have great adhesive properties -- it managed to stay on my windshield as I drove home. On the freeway for part of the commute. Hitting up to 60-some miles/hr at some points. I got home and the snail was still moving when I stopped the car. Brooke's comment on this story: "a determined snail can manage to go fast and far."
