Just make sure to hang a sock or hanger on the door.

I woke up in a bathtub once. It was dry.

I had a college roommate fall asleep in the shower once. He woke up, curled in the corner of the stall...with the water ice cold.

Sounds like good times. You remember anything about the night before?

The bathtub incident - no. I was told that my friends watched me open the door to the kitchen - I was living in a Duplex at the time - and pass out on the kitchen floor. I do remember looking outside and not seeing my car the next day and frantically calling my friends, trying to remember where I had left it.

The lawn - bits and pieces. I know that it was an apartment complex I had never been to before. Two of the buildings were parallel to each other and I had no clue which one I was in the night before. First one looked familiar, at least the door at the end of the hall. I grabbed the knob, it opened! Walked in to find a husband and wife cooking eggs, in their bathrobes. Whoops! Not the right apt. Man they locked the door quickly! Found the correct apt on the second try.

Heh heh. A buddy in Santa Barbara once forgot where he parked his van. As in, there far too many party spots from the night before for him to recall where he left it. House #1? The parking structure off State Street? House #2? That apartment? That parking lot on the other side of State St? Hard to even go look for it when you've got no wheels. Took him a week before he located it.

That is right in line with my impression of UCSB.

Oh man! Isla Vista. Great place during Halloween. That place used to go off!

An engineer friend of mine said he (I don't remember all the details) was walking back from a party or something but bottom line was he was on the streets of Isla Vista at night. He woke up later with a Titanium plate in his skull (broken eye socket) and some teeth messed up. Lost his wallet, too, I believe. Hit over the head with a beer bottle apparently.

I hope your controller has reverse polarity protection designed into it

Eh? Sure, alcohol fueled testosterone did abound, but the only time kids ended up like you describe, was when they drunkenly walked off the cliff.

The low voltage battery powers the C-rio telemetry thing. The motor controller gets power from the big battery apparently and since it does regen braking the reverse polarity should be fine.

It wasn't a fight, it was a mugging. He was not piss drunk at the time. Might have even been sober.
