I simply find it all funny at this point.
Anyway ... the clap wasn't self-congratulatory. It was a tougue-in-cheek thanks for the entertainment! |
And yet the press release included a quote for US sales which I used in my original quote. The reason I did so is because my experience is in the US market and I knew sources to look into (I worked for 2 years at
Dealertrack in their Digital Retailing unit).
Using the US data had nothing to do with 'Murica, it's just what I knew.
And yes, thanks for the entertainment too
