Yep. In 2007, by sheer habit, I got out of the car to pump gas off of I-5 south of Portland, and the attendant was trying to do it for me. Then I realized that the nanny state was present.

But it was like that everywhere for years when some of us were young.

Yep same thing happened to me in Oregon around 1995 after flying into Portland and renting a car. The gas attendant came running out taking the pump out of my hand and giving me the low down on how things work in Oregon. Whatever.
