Dear John

>>Your critique nothwithstanding, I think this thread and the related topics of provide good and valuable content to the community.<<

Sure.

Perhaps now is a good time to report that my company earned just under a million bucks last year from one product built entirely around RVs. The name of the product was not "po dunk". < g >

I guess it's like cars. In the US, cars tend to be automatic and there are huge cars the likes of which are rarely seen elsewhere. SUVs rumble along highways and you rarely see tiny Polos- in fact people tend to laugh at them.

In Europe, cars are increasingly smaller, manual gearboxes are common and very small cars the size of the Polo are now the biggest sellers. In 2001, reputable magazines awarded "best car" to the Toyota Echo which is tiny.

So: which is best, big cars or small cars? Manual or automatic?

There is no one correct answer. Both sides can discuss this and learn as long as one party does not take an absolute position and scoff at the other for being dumb.

Enough said.

Regards

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
