Car Flooded and Ruined While at work

What is the name of your state? Hawaii

I was at a required work function, I am a salaried employee, but off site at a dinner being hosted in part for my company's benefit. While I was inside attending to business, the parking lot flooded in the corner my car was in and when I went outside to leave the function, my car was full of water up to the door jambs and a good deal of the front of the car was under water. I only have liability insurance on my paid off car. I do not have the money to repair my car. Is there anyone I can hold responsible for this act of god? The property manager? The company I work for? Is this anyone's fault but mine? The car did start and I drove it home, but it was very sputtery and now it will start, but immediately dies. I imagine all the fluids probably have water in them. Any help is greatly appreciated. I can't believe this is happening to me. Thanks.

However, the real trick is figuring out how to serve him (her?) I believe someone already tried serving the Pope as God's agent, but that didn't work out so well. I'm a bit rushed so hopefully someone can post a link to that case.

Mayo v. Satan (http://exogenous.org/images/Mayo_v_Satan.pdf).

or the movie

The Man Who Sued God (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0268437/)

If you hadn't driven it, there might have been a chance it would have been ok, but if you got water into the engine, you might be SOL. Sounds like you need a good mechanic to tell you if your car is fixable.

First, not the case I was referring to and second, that response sure says a lot about your religious preferences
