Wilkinson called me the other day to give me an update on that whole 
situation.   Turns out in typically Italian dramatic fashion, that whole "Fiat 
exec" thing was a red herring, meant to distract the public from what was 
really happening; the name and trademarks have indeed been sold, but to somebody 
totally different. a different Italian.   

Wilkinson couldn't remember his name, but he's the fellow who was behind 
the LaForza SUV project.
