I love the whole start x number of cars with one battery thing, once the first starts it doesn't matter. I can start a million cars with 2 lantern batteries. Now if they all cranked at the same time I would be impressed.

Yeah, I was all ready to be impressed until they did them one at a time. Also, I'd like to see them do that with a battery that they'd been using for 5 years.

Setting those (very good and valid) points aside... that's still pretty cool. (Battery excluded)
