On a slightly different but car-related topic:

I just heard that the Palo Alto Concours d'Elegance, which will be held this year at Stanford on Sunday, June 24, 2012, is in need of more volunteers. If you sign up you get free admission (your volunteer efforts only take an hour or two). Check out the web site paconcours.com and contact the volunteer coordinator by emailing info@paconcours.com if you are interested, or emailing Beryl Yatovitz, the volunteer coordinator at beryly956@comcast.net. I will definitely be there again this year!

I would do it but that is NASCAR weekend in Sonoma and wife got me tickets for my birthday this year. Either way I hope people will be able to help out. Have fun.

I went to Cal. I avoid that out-house at all costs, even for nice cars...

Sorry to hear about that. I've dealt with USAA's claims department quite a few times when I was stationed CONUS, and was really impressed with their customer service. I hope all goes well with your claim.

Rx8_soldier

Thanks dude, filed the claim online last night, but still waiting to talk to a human about it.... its gonna have to wait until monday I guess offices are closed

Check out the State of California or Cal Trans websites. There is a form you can fill out to request compensation for the damage. You have to get at least a couple quotes for the work, but it works.
