<VV> CORSA vs Corsa

[James P. Rice]

JR:  Setting here today, I'd agree with your distinction.

But I don't think the blue suits at in the GM legal department saw it that
way back in 1969.  At least that is what I think I remember from those who
were there then.

I believe GM named a Opal model "Corsa" in Europe many years ago.  The push
comes to shove for us would be if GM decided to call current model "Corsa"
over here.  Say, a model of the Cobalt replacement....

Historically Yours,
			James

CORSA (all caps) is essentially an acronym for Corvair Society of America.

Corsa (mixed case) is the name of a Corvair model.

I'm not so sure we would need anyone's (or entity's) permission to use
CORSA.
