The truth behind the downfall of Schwinn...

Anyone here superstitious?

"On September 11, 2001, Pacific Cycle, the nation's largest importer of quality bicycles, purchased the Schwinn/GT Corporation out of bankruptcy court, and united the two brands with the company's other quality lines like Mongoose, Mongoose Pro, Roadmaster and Pacific."

Just thought this was a little bizarre. I was cruising the site looking for any vintage resources for 1972 Opaque Green paint (need some touch-up work on my Super Sport). I'll email 'em and post back when I get a reply.
