Have We Really Become This Stupid?
I had to change the oil sending unit on one of my newer vehicles because it was leaking like I'd pulled the drain plug. After fighting to get access to the sending unit, I went to put my 25-year-old oil sending unit socket on it, and the sending unit was too long. So I went to O'Reilly's and bought a new Lisle socket, which worked just fine. But as I looked at the socket, it had the words DO NOT USE WHILE ENGINE IS RUNNING stamped in it. My old socket never had anything like that, because that's kind of a no-brainer. Have we become dumber in the last 25 years?
