it only takes about 60 seconds to do - including opening the door and getting in the car.
I've helped customers on the phone for 5+ minutes who were still baffled.
....though I've had to describe what a "hazard light button" is, on more than one occasion.

Yeah, I remember when this happened...
The first time Aaron let me take the car by myself for the Diva Drive.
But if the CEL does come on Shucks will read it for free. Aaron had to tell me where the little thing was to hook the code reader into because they didn't know.

that probably sucked. lol
I've had it come on once. I was cleaning the throttle body, sprayed too much in and it idled rough and wouldn't rev over 3 grand. Luckily I was at work and I told Tony what happened. He laughed saying "what'd you spray the whole can?" then cleared the code and it ran perfect.
*phew*

Must be a bad Sunday for S'. My windshield got a chip as well that turned into a pretty bad crack today 
Hopefully my insurance has the free replacement thing; need to call tomorrow and find out.
Garret - Do you know who Brian had do his?

Light is telling you it's time to change the oil. (maybe not, just it's been like 4000 miles since it was last turned off) either way. WILL NOT harm/ do anything. just letting you know it may be time for some oil.
to turn it off.
1) key in ignition.
2) hold trip select button
3) turn key two clicks while still holding button
4) keep holding button for like 10 seconds and it should go out.
I did it all the time when I worked at Honda, but it's been a few months since i've done one, let me know it it doesn't work.
sorry to hear about your window check to see what your insurance will cover.

This seems to be a trend I don't care for much. 
My light came on as well on the drive yesterday but the worst
part is I went out to go to the store today and my windsheild has a hugh spider
crack in the corner.

That's one reason why I always fix my chips as soon as I can. A little moisture and some cold and it will kill the glass.
If you cant get it fixed right away, packing tape over the chip can keep the moisture out and you cant see it much
