Progressive Insurance is worried about me

So progressive has this device you install in your car and it records your speed and how many times you do hard stops and hard starts. The idea is if you drive safely and drive during 'non-dangerous' hours, they'll reduce your rate over time. I thought it was a fantastic idea. I got an email from them today saying:

"When properly plugged in, your sensor will periodically call us regardless of any trip activity. This just lets us know the device is working properly even if you haven't driven lately. Unfortunately, we haven't heard from the following device(s) since 1/26/2010."

Then it goes on to say how to fix the device if it's not working. I like how the last part is bold, it really makes it sound like they're worried about me. Like, 'Are you okay Dan? It's been over a week since you drove your car!" It actually hasn't sent me anything like this since my circuit breaker broke and the device lost power. So I guess this officially the longest I've gone without using my car since I got my progressive device at least (which I think I got a little over a year ago). Quite the milestone.
