I was duped into believing this was a real 'rain emergency' . . . guess I'm just dupe-able . . . .

My Vert is primarily a dry weather, top down car to have fun in.
I drove it for 2 years before I needed to use the wipers, and I'll admit I had to pull over and figure the stalk switch out.
I was also surprised when the headlights turned on whenever the wipers were used. I've read the Manual but skipped over the wipers section.
Of course I had to have the car re-painted after this unfortunate event.
I'm only relating this embarrassment because it's one of the 'steps' mandated by the Forum as a requirement of responsible Corvette ownership.
The shame.
