Nah, we just mix in with these guys.  Every now and then we just take
it over and deluge 'em with European stuff - mainly to make 'em jealous
of the fact that we can actually _drive_ our cars without paying extra
taxes every few miles.  They then hit us back with their ridiculously
low parts prices, and we retaliate with jibes about DOT lights.

Don't fall into the trap of assuming that every .com address is US-based,
or that everyone posting from what looks like an American company is
actually _in_ the USA - a lot are posting from other places around the
world via a US corporate gateway.  Same with AOL, CompuServe, etc.
