1) I'm not your research assistant. 2) If you saw someone make a blatant, glaring error about a subject you knew very well, surely you would be compelled to say something too.

A hidden key also comes in handy when you're 100 miles away from home and you suddenly remember you left the front window open. On more than one occasion, I've had a friend use the spare key to get...
