THE TINY CULPRIT When I called Hernandez Auto back in March, I never expected to be remembered—but Israel, the owner, did exactly that. Three months later, when I mentioned who I was, he recounted the details of our previous conversation like it was yesterday. I was truly blown away. Who does that these days?
