Visited a couple networks after my WECG one - fun stuff and meeting a lot of great people.
Battery update: There are two ways to remove the battery from Buttercup. The easy way (non-intuitive) and the really really hard way (looks to be the easiest). After some serious language, I remembered the non-intuitive easy way and was able to extract it. The front comes off in either two pieces (headlights and grille) or one depending on which set of two bolts you remove from the bottom. Removing the one piece allows the front to slip over the framework that holds the front bucket in place. Removing the bottom piece first allows you to remove it and free the battery - almost. If the framework was a half inch further away, this would be the easy way. Sigh...
Let us hope that in five years I will remember - finally - to go the non-intuitive route and save myself the extra 30 minutes.
