It happens every year, as reliable as bird migration.

Being one of the references in
the Wikipedia article on block heaters probably doesn't hurt.
Speaking of "reliable", those cheap outlet timers have been a game-changer for me. Just set the timer for a couple hours ending about the time you leave for work, plug the car in when you get home, and it takes care of the rest. Before making that modest purchase, I had to get up early, run out (in the cold) and plug it in, so it generally didn't happen. Now it happens every day.
Might be worth adding to the article as a "now you have one less excuse!" thing.
