I have seen MCG admit mistakes before, but this is big hood-wink,, it'll be interesting to see how they handle this. The bit about Mexico is lame. People know so little about exports that when someone who can make themselves sound authorative, say a car is an export, readers/onlooked will immediately say "oh, that explains it". The complete BS part of an Mexico story is that in 1961, Automex (Chrysler's agent in Mexico at the time) sold *both* Plymouth's *and* Dodge's!!! ************************************************************* To unsubscribe or set your subscription options, please go to http://lists.psu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=l-forwardlook&A=1
