who knows?
That happened to me last summer in San Antonio. I had a friend take me and the battery up to Advance Auto, because even a jump wouldn't even get my car started. The guy there hooked it up, not even a few minutes later, he said something similar to my car shouldn't hvae been able to start for as long as it had. The battery was empty not even a charge could fix it.
