Maybe that reminds me of a fellow that delivered a special order to the mine one day in an non-insulated van from Minnesota from a company that was too cheap to pay for a room. He had a sleeping bag and that is all. I gave him an electric heater and told him to go park in the employee parking lot where he could plug in the van and also gave him some extension cords. It was in the neighborhood of -30 that night

Who would leave the engine running? Maybe he decided to just drive back to Minn.
