    Ironically owned, you know, like how Cobasys NimH batteries are owned by Texaco/Chevron ;) What that has to do with Lexus and Toyota is a little more difficult to say.

    Yeah, I'm still trying to figure that one out myself. I guess he doesn't even know the car is fueled by NOTHING bug gasoline? Easier question: What *does* he know?
