Windshield wipers, was Re: IML: Return to Utopia

Hugh, consider Rainex.  It does nothing below 40 mph or so, but over 50, 
the rain just flows out of the windshield without obscuring your 
sight.  You may even be able to just turn off your ineffective 
wipers.  Now, if you are between 30 and 40 where you are going too fast for 
your wipers and too slow for rainex, you may still be in trouble.  Just 
consider this a danger zone, and accelerate as fast as you can from 30 to 
40 when it rains! ;)
