Was the temp where I was yesterday afternoon. Hot does not to begin to describe it. (44.4C for those less edumacated).
OTOH, I got close to 300 miles from half a tank using cruise control and a reasonable speed on clear freeways. The range was up at 475 miles at 11:17 and the temp was a cool 98F.

The question is: how big is the tank? 
I was surprised when I bought my current car (a second hand Mercedes A180): I got nearly 60 mpg at mostly 70 mph on the drive home: 287 miles and well under half a tank (53 litres capacity).

It's a VW - seems far less thirsty than my last car. Don't get anything like that mileage in and around town - this was freeway driving on straight flat roads with little traffic.

I'm impressed with the Baby Benz - it's my second A-Class and it's far, far less thirsty than the previous. The previous was a series 1 1.6l petrol, and this is a series 2 2.0l turbo diesel. From 35mpg average in the old one to averaging over 50 on mostly slow, short trips is a revelation! (And it's a much nicer car to drive as well!)
And I thought the old was was pretty efficient when I got it, because the car it replaced did 20mpg ...  (a Mitsubishi Shogun 4x4)

To be fair I take it that's UK gallons, not those colonial knock-offs.

Where was the other half of the tank ? Was it a half-track ?
Are you re-hydrated now ?
«When I consider my brief span of life, swallowed up in an eternity before and after, the little space I fill, and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant, and which know me not, I am frightened, and am astonished at being here rather than there; for there is no reason why here rather than there, now rather than then.» Blaise Pascal

No more furry business. I suggest you curtail it. As if there's a Snowball chance in hell.

Scratching my head; the idea gave me paws.
On the face of it, it seems purrfectly ridiculous.
But that depends a lot upon how I'm feline at the moment.

Where's the CCC? Are you posting it tomorrow instead, or does this need another reboot?

The Shadowserver Foundation
If you are looking at this page, then more than likely, you noticed a scan coming from this server across your network and/or poking at a service that you have running. The Shadowserver Foundation is currently undertaking a project to search for publicly accessible devices that have services running that should not be exposed because they are trivial to exploit or abuse. The goal of this project is to identify hosts that have these types of services exposed and report them back to the network owners for remediation.
That's interesting (or not.)
What amazes me is how quickly this came in. I've had a test server up since only 4 PM EST yesterday. My logs show the scan occurred at 6:40 AM EST.
