My car is sitting a couple miles away from home in a parking lot. I removed the key from the ignition in a hurry and now I can't start the car. The key turns far enough to unlock the steering (a few degrees) but not far enough to use the allen key/paper clip trick (i.e. 55-60 degrees) to remove the ignition lock cylinder:

I know that several people have had similar issues (Dash01, K_Po_Uno, Gordie ...etc). I've also squirted some silicon lube into the key slot and fiddled with it for about an hour .... no luck ..... I still can't turn it far enough to use the paper clip trick. What are my options? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated .....
