'Just wish I could walk through one like I used to. 'A little tougher to
get past mud holes on my scooter or pushing my walker. Also, people see me
on the scooter or pushing the walker and think I'm blind, deaf, dumb,
stupid, ignorant and helpless. Often, when I'm approaching a door on the
scooter, people step out in front of to try to "help" me with door; I have
to stop abruptly to keep from hitting them or running over their toes; then
I've lost my momentum and it's hard to start again, especially it there's a
slight incline at the door or to cross the threshold, etc. Actually< I can
handle the doors very well myself, thank you. I try to thank them for
helping and try to be tactful; SWMBO, though, says I'm not very tactful.

Don't your battery retailers have a core charge when you get a new
battery? Core charge is a ploy to get you to bring the old one back for
proper disposal...
i haven't bought many in the last few years, but not for the last
couple of batteries i've bought; one for my BMW moto (bought at dealer at
discount), and the other an Optima for my J**p at a Costco. (we've already
discussed the MBZ batt.)
cheers!
