    Agreed. I just came home from the marina as it started to pour. Rain-X was
    reapplied to the Zit yesterday and it worked perfectly on the way home. I
    always wanted to rig up a sort of parallelogram-linkage type wiper system
    like they use on buses. The wiper remains in the vertical position and moves
    side to side with only a slight arc.
