Jon, Surely you Jest. How could this happen to someone like you!
There is enough going on here without making up storys.

Did you block the wheels? (just wondering)

You are saying in effect that if you had had 60 more seconds of fuel you wouldn't have even known. I'll bet you wonder how close you were to this happening previously. (no thanks i'm not in the mood for a plane ride today)
Didn't you tell us somewhere that the tank should be kept full for storage.
When you live on the hill everyone knows what you are doing.
Does it make it better now that you have told your secret?
