>Sorry, it was just the first thing that popped into my head in connection with "German engineering" - my understanding is it was a completely made-up word on the part of the ad agency that did the VW (?) ads. Seems if you had a magic word like that you could turn a country into a submarine. ( I may be completely wrong about all of this as I don't have German, but if I had would have probably tortured out something about turning Germany into a *yellow* submarine ... Alle wir leben in einem gelben Unterseeboot ) ( sad when acid flashbacks mix with glossolalia ... )

I remember the VW ad campaign. Also the bumper stickers that sprung up with the word slightly misspelled at the beginning ;-)
