What To Do

**Ghrankenstein** · 08-30-2004, 04:46 PM

Put your keyless entry fob up against the bottom of your chin. You'll be able to unlock your car from much further than before, and you'll look fairly stupid doing it: a win-win situation.

example: that crazy example

Make sure that your chin is pointed directly at the vehicle. If you have a remote-start Malibu, you'll be able to start it from insane distances. Insane, in this cases, means distances longer than 200 feet.

Enjoy doing this.

I have known this secret for a long time, and do not understand how it works. But it does.

Takes me back to a -very- old-school Conan O'Brien skit character called "The People's Scientist." He was a "Mr. Wizard" type character that did all kinds of little gee-whiz science things.

A typical People's Scientist explanation for such a thing might be, "The answer is... it just does!"

Remote start from an "insane" distance of 200 feet?????

The remote start on my Silverado can supposedly work from 1200 feet away! I regularly start it from the 4th floor of my office building during winter, and that is easily 400 feet.

It must use your chin as an antenna. Imagine how far away Jay Leno could unlock his doors!

We would contact life on other planets instantly.... I kid Jay Leno!

I heard Conan O'Brien is replacing him in like 5 years. That will be interesting.
