	But the "half-way" mark isn't really the mid-point of the
	needle travel, is it?  My car will get up to the bold mark
	slightly left of center (which I think of as half-way), and
	stay there almost independent of driving conditions. I
	run dino juice, but didn't see any difference when I was
	running Mobil-1.
