Well, it's happened to me before, but not on my v45!

The walmart battery that I put in "Rip" when we re-awakened him in July of
97 chose this morning to die on me.
Unlike my previous experiences on the V65, this sudden battery death
occured in mid-ride. I was riding in to power on some of the servers at
the office, when suddenly I was coasting. Wouldn't you know it occurred at
the worst possible place, as I was as far away from a payphone as is
possible place on my short 6 mile commute to work. After a brisk walk, I
summoned help from home, then put the battery from "Scarlett" in and it
started right up and runs fine.
Y2k bug, indeed. Harumpf!
