And, to be forthcoming, I do what I heard was called the VW trick to get the AC belt off. Just as you (Dave) describe, a screwdriver derails the belt, only I use a ratchet to turn the crank bolt and not my remote starter switch. :-)

But some of the things I do don't really fit the new mechanic's toolbox. They depend on a lot of experience and comfort with mechanisms capable of all manner of injuries.

This is just a quicker way to do it given I already know where the bolts are that allow the AC compressor to be loosened.

A famous Viking explorer returned home from a voyage and found his name missing from the town register. His wife insisted on complaining to the local civic official who apologized profusely saying, "I must have taken Leif off my census."
