I can't fill gas correctly?

I swear I'm not an idiot (plus or minus 2%). But when I fill gas, I absolutely CANNOT get the little latch-thingy to stay locked on the gas pump. Every other car I drive, I have no problem filling gas. But with my 9-5, and ONLY at gas stations with that new "EVR"-style California gas pump (where you have to lift the lock-latch UP to the handle).
Every time I try to set it, it trips the auto-shut-off within two seconds, so I have to hold the gas pump in the whole time (and it's very awkward for a guy as tall as me to be half-bent-over doing that for ~17 gallons!). What am I doing wrong? Does anyone else have this problem? Or know an easy way to avoid these new EVR pumps?
