Crazy lady at Target, who walked up right behind me as I was using my remote to close my van doors: "That's not safe, you know."
Me: "What?"
Crazy lady: "I got an email that told me people sit in parking lots and steal codes from remotes like yours."
Me: "My code? (thinking surely my remote is more secure than that...)"
CL: "Yeah, your code. People can steal it and rob your car."
Me: "Oh, um. Thanks."
Luckily, we do not live in the 1970's and car manufacturers have created a much more secure system than having one static code for your remote transmitter. Thanks, HowStuffWorks.com! Take that, crazy lady.
