David,

From what the news reported this evening, we will need to share VW!  40% of
their employees will be moving to the VA office, with 60% remaining in
Michigan... that's the plan for now!

I am glad to see VW of America moving out of Michigan and to VA. As far as
Michigan and the auto industry is concerned it will probably continue to be
a
day late and a dollar short until domestic and foreign auto interests dry up
and  blow away. Virginia is a fresh start and relatively hospitable to new
industry.  The area is ripe with technologically beneficial resources. I
live in
beautiful  SW Virginia. Would I move to northern Virginia? Hell no! It is
figuratively and  literally people stepping all over each other to get
somewhere.
I'll continue to  drive my 90 Westy through the beautiful, scenic and
historic
Blue Ridge  Mountains, enjoying the peace, quiet and tranquility (required
Vanagon content).  Welcome VW! I can't wait to visit then come home and
relax.
