Do you suppose that VW has little mini Nazi's monitoring all the VW blogs,
lists, vendors, E baze, wrecking yards, BenT page?

Chris,
 Aren't you afraid Volkswagen will come knocking on JordanVW's door at the
farm in Philly?
 A certain Horace Kimbrell Sawyer from Georgia, once offered to defend my
use of the name Vanagon Cafe pro bono last time this controversary popped
up. You remember him don't you? No, I don't mean the cause for the deceased
senator/former singer. Nor Bono who said "You Too?"
 I could always call it BenT Cafe. Bent to please VW's then.
 Anyway, this is neither here nor there but Vanagon Construction which used
to pop-up on my net searches for the word "Vanagon" seems to have
disappeared. Who could be next? I can see it now. The headlines reads,
"Vanagon Deconstruction".
 BenT but still STR8
