I don't even care that much but I did bother to look and see who Schaeffer

They ain't no store brand.

 From their website:

In 1839 Nicholas Schaeffer founded Schaeffer Manufacturing Co., which has 
manufactured lubricants in America longer than any other company.


You should like them Ron, they make lots of different kinds of Dino Juice!  :-)
