Well, I gave Sunnyvale a call.  They said if I had it in there Monday
morning by 7:45 they'd be able at least to do my service, and take a look
at the clutch.  They have a "delivery service" that can get me to work,
but no way to get me home.  Carlsen seemed to indicate that they would
be able to give me a loaner if they needed to keep my car.  But as a
consultant, I don't have the same leeway a regular employee has to say "Oh
I'll be late today, my car is getting worked on."
