on the road, but there's no place for jocularity on THIS list.

<< OK, You asked for it.  It was right after the big one "WW II" and Nissan 
was going to change over from making torpedo bombers to cars.  Because of 
resentment in the US to their name Mr Nissan went to his old friends at VW 
and BMW to ask if they could come up with a name that wouldn't remind the 
americans of Pearl Harbor.   One of the BMW engineers asked when they needed 
the name and Mr Nissan said "in about two weeks" the engineer  replied "dat 
soon?".
