<<In the mid-to-late 80s, Pennzoil sued Texaco for interfering with their take-over of Getty Oil. They won $10.5 billion, but then settled down to $2.5 billion by the end of the decade. It almost destroyed Texaco for good. >> I knew I remembered a lawsuit between them. This was it. TX was a client of mine then. I can tell you it was a brutal battle from my perspective. FWIW, Eric

Well, I've read through all of today's messages and I still don't have a clue as to WHY we are UP 1/2 point!! Is it just the same old tired rumor about the "imminent" deal with TX? If so, I may want to play RNTK as a daytrader rather than be a long term holder...

There is another way of looking at this: <In the mid-to-late 80s, Pennzoil sued Texaco for interfering with their take-over of Getty Oil. They won $10.5 billion, but then settled down to $2.5 billion by the end of the decade. It almost destroyed Texaco for good. If Mr. Ball was part of this action, then Rentech has a strong ally with experience in the Texaco trenches.> Mr Ball may have engendered hard feelings at Texaco and there may be some at Texaco who would only be too happy to get revenge on Ball!!
