Hello, Being based in London (England) I read the first "How Mazda screw up" whilst I was at work last night (due to the time difference etc). I also read the pathetic rejoinders. As usual, I receive the bulk of your communications the following morning, and was gratified to see the reaction of Maiata.net to this low-brow sniping. I have to say, I was going to end my subscription (don't all shout at once) when the I read the second "clever" mail, which went a long way to providing plenty of prejudical "Bloody Yanks" material to the whole of my rather large and, hell, liberal department. A few pre-conceptions on the isolationism and arrogance of the American People were embedded. However, it was wonderful to read the prompt reactions of the vast majority of the Miata-owning (and computer using) netters which quickly dispelled these worries. But, it does sometimes seem that the American contingent of the "Universal Miata site" does neglect its international chums. This is, I suppose, understandable due to the (apparently) quite large differences between specs. from country to country. However, the basics, I'm sure, remain the same and it would be great if some of the wise heads out there could provide a bit feedback for our antipodeal chums! Does this count as Miata content?
