Same thing happened to me in the past with my phone calls and emails. The owner apologized and said that wasn't the way he wanted to do business. Hmmm...

The US is NOT the ONLY country on the planet! Beleive it or not many countries are significantly more advanced than us due to our ancient infrastructure. All you need do is visit Asia and you would see a clear difference although all in all the US is still the best there is - specifically because a vette (or any other hi-po car) would run you at least 200KUSD +++ down there.

Service, drop dead gorgeous woman (dime a dozen), far superior airline system, cellular communication (or the selection thereof), great food, and booming economies are all a daily occurance in Asia although I must say - India is the very worst place I have EVER been.
