 It does surprize me. Is there any way to get my original e-mail post on the
subject to the engineers at VW in 1983? These guys need to bone up a bit on
water cooling issues ;)

I could also send VW engineers a retro e-mail and explain that moving their
production of passenger car to Mexico is going to end up with inferior vehicles
they'll be selling in 2004.
