[edit] Luxury Car Comment

Re: Your comment about the "General Definition of luxury cars." Well, the Western European definition of a luxury car is pretty close, check out the VDA annual report, besides I should know-I'm German. But of course the situation looks a lot different in developing countires but considering this issue it would be plain IMPOSSIBLE to have a definition of what a luxury car is. But also consider the following: if you apply the General Definition I outlined on any market it will point out the luxury cars in that market. Even in developing countires such as Russia no one calls an Escort a luxury car, even if they themselves can't afford it. But the cars that fit the criteria outlined in the "General Definition, and most propbably only those, will be identified by the people of that particular developing country as a luxury car. Even though I'm gonna think of a way to create a separate definition for developing countries, it really does seem to be impossible. Thanks for being concerned though Gerdbrendel 06:00, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] America/USA Poll

Can you just claifiy your vote. you appear to have voted *against* keeping the status quo, but your comment says you support the status quo. (Status Quo is 'United States' unless a common propper-noun such as 'American Football'.) --Barberio 14:14, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

The poll was on what should be normal practice, not on if we should explicitly state it as such. (altho, that would be implied in a vote to Keep) Many people have taken your vote as the oposite of your intent, so I've moved it. --Barberio 15:26, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Comment on Talk:Metre#History of the metric system

What does this have to do with this article or the discussion? —Centrxtalk • 20:28, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

It was a humorous comment about BillFlis's statement that 100 (Fahrenheit) is about as hot as it gets. Markb 05:15, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
Oh, I see now. I will spare you "lols" and just tell you that I find it funny and that I am actually laughing aloud. By the blandness of this comment you may not believe me, but it is true. —Centrxtalk • 07:48, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Seeing my comment it still looks fake, even though I did find it funny. No sarcasm intended. Beating of dead horse done. —Centrxtalk • 04:34, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

No worries! Markb 05:45, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
