    This major company started on one island, is now headquartered on another island and makes much of its products on a third island. The company's famous logo comes from the creatures that lived where the product was first made. What is the name of the company, the logo, the three islands and why has there been a major falling out with the country where the company started?

    Question #59072. Asked by gmackematix.

    Please tell me if I am right:

    The company is Bacardi Rum
    The logo is a bat which lived in the factory where they began making the rum

    and the islands are:
    Cuba Where the Bacardi company was founded
    Puerto Rico and the Bahamas.

    Well, the HQ is now in Hamilton, Bermuda not in the Bahamas but as the question was hardly a breezer that's worth a definite yay, Kris.

    Having lived in Worcester, MA for a time in 1997, I was always amazed when we went socialising in Boston to find that there was an area in the city where the pubs didn't sell Budweiser or any Budweiser products. I could never get an answer as to why this was. Anyone know when and why this practice started?

    The tallest build in a famous city is 62 storeys high and covered in glass panels. The proud owners of the new building were horrified when glass panels started to fall off the building, causing danger and damage in the surrounding area. It transpired that the glass manufacturer had been negligent in supplying glass which was not properly pre-stressed, as specified in the building designs. The company that owed the building instituted a lawsuit against the glass company claiming millions of dollars worth of damages. They had an excellent case and would have won the suit, but one week before it was due to start they dropped all claims against the glass company and received no compensation whatsoever. Why?
