Not always true, Donny:

Our division was the most profitable of our Fortune 500 parent. They acquired us as part of another acquisition and just could not figure out how to manage us. Our contribution to their bottom line was practically insignificant. (We did not need management but sold, we were!) Sad day for me because folks at the top always get the axe when a competitor takes over. One of life's great lessons for me.

It would be wonderful if an American Company could acquire Technics and bring them to life again. It was a great line of KBs.
