They haven't marked Toyota and GM plants in Shushary area, although these plants had been built long before Hyundai one

Many years ago (194) I was in Akron, the home of Goodyear world wide and in one (very large) room they had table top scale models of every Goodyear factory in the world. the tables were each about the area of 4 ping pong tables joined together. pretty amazing - but totally off topic, sorry.
Trev fades out stage left to read the link.

Gee that was a long time ago

ps. How come the "modify"button only works on your last post. I thought an  original poster could modify at any time and the time of editing showed at the bottom of the post.

Must be thinking of a different forum, Trev...

As long as I've been on it you've only been able to modify your post for a short time after posting, then the option disappears.
On threads (that you've started) you can remove or lock them.

As for showing at the bottom of the post when something had been edited?
I wish....this has been one of my biggest criticisms of our forum, mods & admin have been able to alter posts and there's no indication showing us peasants that this has happened.....

Start a poll, gauge the feeling... nothing's ever refused if it's what folk want:

- edit own posts with no time limitation
- mark modified posts with who/when/[why]

Might be a plan, thanks for the suggestion, Steve...
