My new car goes in reverse when I put it in first gear but only on full-moon nights with the tank on reserve when the left light is blinking
OT aside: When I went to take my current car (a manual) for a test drive, I had to stop and ask the dealer how to put it into reverse. Turns out the only difference between first and reverse on that model is whether you lift up a little ring on the shaft of the gear lever prior to engagement. Who came up with *that* brilliant piece of user interface design I don't know. It seems specifically designed to encourage velocity sign errors when starting off... -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
