    I got this today:please join us and PLEASE forward this email
    immediately to everyone
    in your address book asking them to also forward
    it. We have 12 days and
    counting to get the word out all across this great
    land we love and call
    the
    United States of America. Let's see how powerful email can be!

    THE PROGRAM IS THIS: On Thursday, October 11th,
    2001, have everyone
    in the USA who will be driving a motor vehicle
    that day drive with their
    headlights on during daylight hours.

    This will be the 30th day commemoration in honor
    of our fallen
    friends desecrated by the terrorists' attacks on
    NYC , the Pentagon, and
    the
    highjacked plane that crashed in PA.

    The purpose of driving with headlights on this day will:
    1). Show our respect, friendship, and tribute to
    all of those
    individuals who lost their lives on that dreadful
    September 11, 2001
    day.
    2). Show our concern for the family members of
    those individuals.
    3). Show those uncouth terrorists that the fabric of the USA is
    stronger than steel.
    4). Show that we Americans have solidarity
    standing shoulder to
    shoulder against any terrorists' acts upon the
    USA.
    You can probably add others to this list.

    "Your contribution by sending this email on to
    others is greatly
    appreciated; many thanks to you."

    Umm, hoping you are joking?

    An Alternator :D It creates the juice for your car while it is on.

    It is connected via a belt to the engine, which creates current.

    Sucks when the Alternator goes out!!! Have to buy a new battery most of the time...




    Turn your lights on.

    Yea what Wink said. Just the way turning on the radio only waists battery when the car is not running but when the car is running it actually recharges the battery.

    Ever wonder why somebody can drive with their headlights on for hours every night but if they go to work and leave them on for a few hours their battery goes dead? yea its the same thing.
