And reading the last couple of posts made me remember my uncle had a New Holland tractor once and also a Deutz at one time before that. Neither had anything to do with The Netherlands, Holland, anything Dutch or flashlights.
There are a few places in USA with Dutch names though, like Blooklyn (Breukelen), Harlem (Haarlem) and New Amsterdam (New York now).
And how about New Zeeland? Zeeland is a province in the Netherlands.
Yeah, the Dutchies used to boat around a lot in the past.
We had a bunch of colonies too.
Maybe New Holland was a company into agricultural stuff in the early days of America.
Either way, not much left of the old Dutch gloryā¦
Last update and warning. Only 36 hours left to be IN on this GAW.
Why not 24 hours? Well, most of NL is at sleep at that time of day
That's great for those in the Netherlands...
But what about the Dutch?
Easy. The Dutch are in Netherland what Americans ususally are in the United States: included.
Though the last group mentioned must try their luck in the non-NL GAW.

To help bolster the dutch speaking flashlight fan base
