Eric,



If you don't turn the control all the way, the parking lights remain on.  Also,

N.J. instituted a new law requiring lights to be on when wipers are on.  On

a bright, sunny summer day during a sun shower, I think it's pretty stupid

to put the headlights on.  Hence I will occasionally switch on just the

parking lights - "Oh officer, I thought I had turned the lights on, sorry!".

P.S. Just out of curiousity (since I'm not a cat), what is derivation of

"Pizzi-5"?
