Ick, Hil. Did the temperature drop recently? Sometimes the contraction of the gas molecules in the tires after a cold snap will be enough to trigger the sensor.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
PV=nRT! Sudden temp drops always make mine go off. It's annoying. It's not that hard to put some extra smarts in there!
Gotta bake tonight.
I ran over something a few weeks ago, and the light went on then, and I put some air in the tires and it turned off, but then it came on again this afternoon, so I figured maybe it was a slow leak or something related to that. The light came on in the afternoon, when it was relatively warm out, but it wasn't on in the morning, when it was freezing, and I've never had an issue with the cold making the light come on before, and I've live somewhere with sub-zero temperatures that past several winters.
What kind of activity was it, Jesse?
It was like the Newlywed Game, where you put people in pairs and try to get them to match each other's answers, except with work-related questions.
That sounds pretty good, Jesse.
Hil, someone was just telling me the other day that if the air in your spare gets low for whatever reason it'll turn the light on, so you might want to check that.
My car is not that smart - it'll tell me if a door is open or my seatbelt isn't fastened, and if the lights are still on after I've turned the engine off, that's about it.
I thought I'd swing by the PO and get one of those flat rate envelopes so I could just drop off the present I need to mail in the morning, but I could not figure out what size I need or if the pretty ones would work, so I ended up not getting anything there. But I did get some coffee, and got it ground, AND left it in the car so I am almost sure to bring it to work tomorrow.
PV=nRT!
OMG I have no idea what this mean. I quickly ran through Penis (in) Vagina = ineRT, then the slightly less crazy Pressure Valve = no Right Turn, before I gave up completely.
That is hilarious, Burrell! It's the Ideal Gas Law: Pressure times Volume equals the number of moles times the ideal gas constant times the temperature (in kelvin). Temperature goes down with no leak (qty of gas stays the same), pressure and volume go down, to apply it to Hil's tires (maybe).
I learned it at least three times (Chemistry, Physics, and scuba diving), I'm apt to spout it under the slightest provocation.
Penis(in)Vagina=(i)n(e)RT is awesome! Something about imaginary platonic ideals, maybe?
ZenKitty did a yeoman's job in going through my stuff and working with my awesome friends. Here's wishing her safe travels.
Yay Zenkitty!!!
Yay Zenkitty! And other awesome friends!
