It is better to feel stupid than to
be stupid...
I think I read that in a fortune cookie so it must be true!
When mine broke it was in the middle of the night and it sounded like someone set off a LARGE gun in the garage. I investigated but couldn't see anything wrong in the garage (used side door) but then when I went to open the garage door the next morning I found the problem.
I also paid someone else to fix it.
