Edit 10/9/09: Wait - why did you take a "very cold ride" to work? If you don't need A/C why did you turn it on? You're just making the problem worse. Oh, and another tip - make sure your evap case drain hole isn't obstructed. That will cause water to "pool" in the evap case and creates a worse problem - in which case the procedure I recommended above ain't gonna work.
I did not have the AC on. Just the temp set to cool and the fan set to high. It was a chili morning so it was blowing cold air in my car for 10 mins.

I still have my appointment for the 26th to have the Frigi-Clean stuff blown in my AC evap case.

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.
