Apparently they call America Online 'AOL' so the reference to America is not obvious.

That's not true. It's just easier to brand. Are you telling me "Kentucky Fried Chicken" started calling themselves "KFC" so that the reference to chicken wasn't so obvious?

There's plenty of stuff in Europe that sells on the *basis* of it being American.


 Im not 100% sure but I think I'm right in saying millions of people worldwide don't feel hatred towards chickens!

 

But that AOL fact/rumour I gave was on a news program about 15/16 years ago when they were about to launch it outside of USA.
