Yes you are a paranoid. The thieves will now take your car too; and your 
chain. And your motion alarm will fall on deaf ears. I would add a truck 
club in the cockpit. Yes all of these are easily breached. A 3/8" cable 
goes in less time than it takes to say it. Half inch chain assumes the 
thieves are kids who can't afford a bolt cutter. They can tow your car you 
know? Bottom line: keep it sight at all times, and plan on ground floor 
hotel rooms with looonnnnggggg room hallways. Sleeping in the car helps as 
well. What me paranoid? Whatever gave you that notion?
