Let it warm up -- maybe 5 min, but it never rose.
So I ran out of patience, jumped in and drove home.
Once again it was at the mid-level point.
I opened the pressure relief valve, I could hear a little gurgling, but nothing serious.
I opened the coolant cap (carefully and with a rag), I could see wisps of steam,
but not a lot. this was while car was running.
No signs of coolant in oil or vis-versa. No CEL, misfires, coolant light.
Everything is running fine -- temps were fine.
Nothing out of the ordinary.
I have no evidence of leaks anywhere -- but I haven't pulled any of the engine trays and looked around.
thoughts?

Mike-
Pull a vacuum on the cooling system while the car is cold, see if the level changes due to air coming out.
