How ironic that the company whose initial success was based on the Beetle, designed by Ferdinand Porsche, should be about to take over the company he founded and his son continued to run after World War II!

- Which author was born today in 1802 and wrote "The Three Musketeers" and "The Count of Monte Cristo"?
