Is that so? If so, it sounds like the situation in Denmark: Carlsburg and Tuborg are the two big rival brewries there, with ads that blast the other company's product, but they are in fact owned by the same parent company. No matter who wins the taste tests, the parent company still comes out ahead. -- Allan Pratt ihnp4!inuxc!apratt
