Opportunity knocks once let's reach out and grab it, 
Together we'll nab it,

Was violently reminded of the perils of 'sun' [1] mixed with 'June' combined with 'Oklahoma' when I left the wine in the wagon for a few hours after arrival, and the predictable happened.

Messy, but not impossible to clean.  And the car now has a 'winey' smell that is faint, and not-unpleasing.
