If it's such a bad business strategy, they wouldn't have been in business for the better part of a century! I think it's just one of those "Just-crazy-enough-to-work" thing.

His name is boring. The company's name is not to be taken literally.

Funny, reminds me of when I was in youth soccer and our sponsor was Rogers-Dingus chevrolet.

I just don' t know why they couldn't be Dingus-Rogers.
Didn't they realize how it sounded?
