Well Murray,

        There's no reason to be rude.

        I put those comments in, as a bit of humor, to try to stop a flame war 
of
this sort.

        I must say I'm a bit offended by your characterization of the America 
worker.
And the car for that matter. American cars are improving  considerably. While
I've never bought an "American" car, I do have cars built in America. I find
them better built than the one Japanese car that I have.

        Please read more carefully in the future, take a breath, and think twice
before you press send.

Paul.
