Don't mean to rain on your parade, but I was enjoying mine yesterday by
driving it to work. On the way home (in the FL, fairly mild heat) I got
stuck in traffic after a spirited run on the Interstate. After 4 minutes of
idling with the A/C on and windows shut, the AC blew a hose feeding the
evap. The cabin filled with condensation and I quickly turned the AC off
and opened the windows. "Smoke" poured out my car for several minutes as
the system drained.  I knew what it was and wasn't concerned, but those
around me thought I was on fire.  I smiled and drove off.
