Re: GBlist: Vacuum's suck



Listers

A little humor apropos to our vacuum cleaner discussion:

	Cracking an international market is a goal of most growing
	corporations.  It shouldn't be that hard, yet even the big
	multi-nationals run into trouble because of language and 		cultural
differences.  For example...

	Scandinavian vacuum manufacturer Electrolux used the following 		in an
American ad campaign:  

	"Nothing sucks like an Electrolux."

(excerpted from a very funny email)
