In a vain attempt to make this thread relevant to the Volvo 240 line, I can only think that few folks in this forum would find any problem with the Chinese buying or remaking tooling to start churning out Volvo 240s again. It's a pipe dream--it will never happen--but I'm using that dream as a vehicle to help my fellow brickheads to overcome their anti-China bias and see things in a different light.

I bet at least 80% of the various electrons involved in all the computing mass used to lurk/post/support/administer the Brickboard, and the internet as a whole, have origins in China.

I'm an American and I'm not terribly pleased with how we're managing our own economy, but the last thing I'm going to do is point the finger at China and say it's their fault--because it isn't, in my opinion. I want ownership of the problem, I want to help fix it, and I want credit when things are getting better.
