Festool might want to consider not calling this a 'toolie' down under.

Toolie can mean many things depending on the culture of a specific country. In many it might be ok to call Festool's set of hex heads a Multi Toolie, but not necessarily down under -

Oh well, I figure most cultures know enough about common usage in the english language, that tool is something for fixing or working on things, then they go to a tool site, or a tool store and see a toolie, and don't get confused.. No worries Festool!

Here's a good example from the announcement:

"Always walk on well-lit streets. There may be less lighting in country areas so take a torch with you"

Either life in Australia is pretty primitive or they mean a "flashlight".  [smile]

Oh I'm sure it's primitive, but on the otherhand a Flashlight doesn't seem like it should stay lit very long, but a torch now that just burns until it runs out of fuel..
