Ah. no. Excuse me.  I barely trust Joe at NTB to place the tires on the
rims for me, let alone do the alignment.  (Insert first hand story about 
local NTB wrenches forgetting to ticghten lug-nuts)  It was not about the
"extra amount" to get the alignment done.  I had asked the AUDI tech to do
the alignment because I wanted the alignment done right.  When it was
*FORGOTTEN* and then tried to cover up with a manager's analysis of my
rationale, I have reason to be annoyed.  Please don't tell me why and why
not to bitch. 

And for the follow up to the original thread.  The rotors are also part of
the deal.  Audi called me today to tell me that the pads and rotors are
in.
