My wift heard an item on WBBM (Chicago)
business news Monday evening -- it said
that an american company was going to
import Mexican VW Beetles and "federalize"
them, then sell them in the states for
~$7,000.  Volkswagen's comment was that
"there's nothing we can do to stop them."

Since WBBM gets its business news from the
Chicago Tribune, I looked in yesterday's
and today's paper to confirm this item.
I have yet to see anything.

If anyone else sees or hears of this,
send mail or post to the net,
because I'm . . .
