Gas Stations

Out in New York state an odd thing was observed while filling the car with fuel today -- the pumps won't let you set that little lever on the handle to the "on" position so you can wash your windows or check your oil or huddle in your vehicle out of the wind. No, you must stand there and squeeze the lever until your tank is full even though the pump handles have the little lever on them - but they have nothing for the lever to latch onto to keep the pump running. What gives, NY?
