From the Japan Times comes this dandy article about asbestos use by Japanese automakers (except Honda) since 1996.
I wonder if the Germans are doing the same thing ...

I meant because of asbestos in the Japanese cars. Are all those threads about Japanese-car asbestos lawsuits?
[/quote]
Sorry my mistake.
Don't know about asbestos lawsuits involving Japanese cars, but who knows ... should go and check the court dockets before I speak ...
[/quote]Problem not. OK, now I'll bet there will be some. Why wouldn't someone decide that his or her illness is because of the Japanese asbestos once its presence becomes common knowledge?

Are you trying to drum up business my way?

Yes, you were replying when I was editing. Check my last post.

You don't want to know my regular hourly rates.
[/quote]I wouldn't mind knowing, but if we do the asbestos lawsuit, then it will have to be 50/50. My idea and story/your work. Incidentally, I may be scarce for a while--going to London and beyond for about 10 days starting tomorrow. But, I'll probably end up on-line some of the days. Usually, the hotels we stay at have wireless or Ethernet access.

Enjoy your trip.
I'll be headed out to Phoenix next week.

Will do, and you to. I had thought about getting together when you are here. But, our timings don't match, and my guess it that you will be busy on business. Later--when online next appears for me--probably this afternoon at Phoenix Sky Harbor, which now has free wireless throughout
