Re: Just a reminder...

About 35yrs. ago when I was younger & dumber I was charging one of my boat's batteries and smoking at the same time. I had the fill caps off and looked down into the battery to check the water level with the cigarette hanging out of my mouth. Blew the top off of the battery and battery acid all over me. Apparently I shut my eyes just at the right time and got to the garden hose quickly. I still do dumb things .... did manage to quit smoking though.
