Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen, we have the results of the quiz:
Which auto manufacturer did the famous commercial?

        --  AUDI  --

The Medalists, ranked in order of first to respond correctly, are:

Taking the GOLD:                Jim A

Grabbing the SILVER:            Brian Yonker

Snatching the BRONZE:   Ken (Hart?)

Honorable mention to:   Tobin Copley
                                Tom Stone
                                Michael S. Nichols

But the VERY BEST response (written in the german dialect of the commercial
itself),
and taking the coveted $CRAP Platinum Edition Vanagon Audi Conversion
miniature series trophy replica,
signed by Ron Salmon, Ken Wilford, David Marshall, Detlev, Beantown Bob,
Todd Hill, and Coyote, is:

                        ~  Alan Bosch  ~
<huge applause!>

Whose response was:

"Zee only kar komercial I kan recall from zee Seventies, komplete mit der
tick Jherman akzent, vould be zee Audi Five-sauzend.
Ist goot, ya?
Alan Bosch
& Phred ('88 Wolfsburg)
Rochester, NY
Please, no S.C.R.A.P. for prizes! :o)"


        *Prizes will be distributed solely at the discretion of $CRAP*, sorry
Alan.  As always with $CRAP, winners are responsible for all costs and
fees.  Visa/Mastercard accepted.  Thank you for using *Sawyer Consolidated
Rent-A-Part.

---- Biggest Question lingering:        Why didn't Chris Jordan (Mr. Audi) enter
the contest?
(p.s. -- I hereby deem this my Friday post for this week --sorry for the bw)
