Article: Gainesville is so nice

I was helping the new Israeli shlicha (emissary) refresh her
stick shift driving skills. She arrived recently and the car
they gave her was a manual transmission.

The car had been sitting for three months. After she stalled
the car several times, in rush hour traffic, the battery died.
We had to get help pushing the car to get it started. Then we
drove around for a couple of hours to recharge the battery.

We were the first car stopped at a red light with a number
of cars behind us. The light turned green, but we had some
trouble getting the car in the right gear and moving forward.
Eventually we managed to go and Yael said, "How come nobody
was honking?"

Gainesville is so nice.
