At 11:52 AM -0400 4/25/01, KENWILFY@aol.com rearranged electrons to say:


Chris is right (don't let it go to your head :), all big companies now are
global and are sourcing out their products all over the world.




It might surprise you to hear (then again, it might not) that
Volkswagen AG owns the Skoda car company -- of Spain. They make some
very nice vehicles that are as good as those sold under the VW brand
name, but they cost less!


The box for the European headlight switch that I added to my Golf
this weekend had the VW, Audi, Skoda, and (if I remember right) SEAT
logos on it.
