Dear Mr. Witter and Mr. Hallmark,
     I am disappointed that my previously beloved Volkswagen company forced
Volks Cafe to change its name.   Congrtatulations for the legal win, but this
misguided use of power has lost your Company free publicity and the respect,
trust and customer support of a large, worldwide community of enthusiasts.
     Nothing compares to Hitler's misuse of the VW name, but your Public
Relations Department should be ashamed.   This damage done to your formerly loyal
supporters will reflect in future negativee sales reports...
