Sometimes it seems that anyone who hangs out here and takes all the sh*t that is thrown at them by some people must be crazy.

I guess I shouldn't know who Henry Ford was either.

Ford was widely attacked for employing Harry Bennett, a former boxer who established a squad of thugs to spy, beat up, and otherwise intimidate union organizers.

Never heard that story but I'm not a Ford guy

There's too much auto history, I only know the big stuff and things that interest me.

My hairdresser's daughter is going to school with the grandson of the founder of Oldsmobile.(actually is has to be a great great grandkid or something) Oldsmobiles were around a long time ago. No more Oldsmobiles for sale, but I guess the $ is still there.
