Default VolkswagEn

Hi

I'm a 23-year-old student from Finland and first of all I'd like to congratulate the people who are responsible for making this site happen! You are doing a good job! Keep it up. images/smilies/smile.gif

So far I have had trouble downloading episodes as torrents, because both my school -and home computer are behind a very nasty firewall, which makes living hard sometimes. Luckily I have been able to get each and every episode so far from other file sharing communities. Anyway ... I know where the episodes originally came from and thereby own my gratitude to you guys.

Then the issue:

I drive a Volkswagen. You heard me... a VolkswagEn. I don't know why, but it seems that everytime the name "Volkswagen" appears on the episode infos it's syntax is "Volkswagon". ???

This might be a joke of somekind and I just don't get it. :O

There... I've said it.

Greets!

Teemu
