This one was found in our car. I don't know where we picked it up between Pa and Ohio. Does anyone know what it is?

This is a crane fly (Diptera: Tipulidae), likely a male - see http://tinyurl.com/qccj4r for an image and http://tinyurl.com/ol8s4f for more information. Although they may look like gigantic mosquitoes, they are completely harmless.
