Was there ever any doubt?

William of Ockham strikes again!


So you won the battle with the oil company?


Well, not yet. The technician that came to my house spent about 5 seconds playing with the level gauge before determining that I, in fact, had half a tank of fuel, and the gauge was working properly.

Of course, since the powers that be insisted that he physically measure the oil in the tank, he had to take the thing out to put in a measuring stick. He promptly broke the level gauge in the process of putting it back in. So, he ended up replacing the stupid thing anyway...and guess what! The new one also says I have half a tank of oil.
