how 'bout this one: some years back, a friend of mine worked at Paccar's
test facility in Mt. Vernon, WA. Paccar is the corporation that makes
Kenworth and Peterbilt class VIII trucks (big 18-wheelers). the test
facility guys get to see all, but when the Kenworth engineers are there,
they can't see the Peterbilt stuff, and when the Peterbilt engineers are in,
they can't see the Kenworth stuff. and they all work for the same company!
