What would you say if I had a battery in my car that was the original
battery from the manufacturer and the car just turned 10 years old?
I'm not really complaining, but it seems odd that it has lasted this
long.  Four of those years was in Johnson City, TN, and the last six
have been here in Denver, CO.  Maybe since the car was a Super
Beetle, it doesn't use much juice to start up.  Please note that I am
knocking on wood as I write this article.  :-)
