As I was driving my 89 syncro across Kansas last week, a cop pulled me over,
because I was "drifting" and he was worried that I was bored and falling
asleep.  He had a nice long look through all the windows of the van on his
way up, though.  And I wasn't drifting, though I did take a couple of gusts
of wind.  Just a bored cop with nothing better to do than fantasize I was
the unibomber or something.  No worries, though, he was courteous, just not
a good liar.
