My 1984 Pontiac Fiero just did a strange thing this morning (Monday morning
of course!).

I parked it in the garage Friday afternoon and everything was working fine.
This morning, I open the door, and no interior lights come on.  Whoops!
I must have left my door ajar all weekend.  No problem, I'll just push start
it (manual transmission).  As soon as the car gets rolling, the interior light
comes on (I had my door open), the radio comes to life, and I start the car
with the ignition switch.  The radio did 'forget' the time and the preset
stations.

Everything was fine on the drive into work, but what happened?  I obviously
completely lost power, because the radio lost its memory.  What happened
and what fixed it??

					Thanks for any info,
