Let's take a Toyota Camry for example, tell me sir, is it a Japanese car because Toyota is a Japanese company that is traded on the Nikkei or is it an American car because it's assembled here and the VIN begins with a "1" or is it a European car because most of the sub-assemblies and components came from European countries? I can't even figure out myself whether or not the damn thing is a Japanese car, an American car or a European car. Maybe it's a Japanese car because it was DESIGNED by a bunch of clowns that were too stupid to figure out how to win Wold War II and who can't design a damned thing on their own but instead do nothing but steal designs from other countries and modify them and claim they are some sort of "superior" force in the manufacturing world because they can produce a car cheaper that rots away in five years.....BUT STILL RUNS GREAT!

Do you now see how stupid that poll would be?
It would be even more stupid because this is a cigar forum.

I too think the original pole is stupid, almost as stupid as asking if gas-gars would "age" and end up tasting better next to real "premium" cigars in a humidor, however if he qualified it with what is your favorite country of origin for a puro, the poll would have made more sense (still a useless poll.)

The Germans couldn't figure out how to win WW-II either, but they do design their own cars, FWIW. I guess I'm saying that I don't see WW-II as a matter of stupidity.
