Steve, you have some good advice here and I would bite the bullet with a new battery and after you double check the battery connections check the grounding straps on the car - loosen them and tighten them to be sure and get a good bite - after you install the new battery use some grease on the terminals to prevent corrosion as well as the grounding straps! good luck!

Update: Car wouldn't start again this morning....changed the battery eventhough Autozone said it was ok. Took about 4 pushes of the start button beofre it turned over.

Gabbed with Raul on the phone last night about this. Curious...if/since its evident that folks (even Honda obviously) sell replacement START buttons, could it be that the Start button is failing???

Update:
I replaced the battery, and everything worked gfine tiull Sunday morning. We made a pit stop on a drive (I was at FC) and the car died. I had to be push started again. Again, the problem was intermittent. So, I get home, go to the dealer to drop it off, the friggin thing started. I sat for 20min just turning it off and starting it, it cranked up everytime.......yet, I had to be pushed started like 4 times at FC and during the ride home. This sucks!
