Craig, <<larger companies who would love to acquire a great company like PX>> Over the years there have been persistent rumors that British Petroleum wants PX. PX was a division of Union Carbide as the Linde division not too long ago. Things tend to move in circles, first corporate diversification, then spin-offs, then they reinvent the whole process over again. Nothing new under the sun with corporate monkey motions. The Japanese lean and mean model has cracks, everyone now sees the weakness. Maybe a return to restoring some company fat, happy employees, and flexibility is again in order. How's that for wishful thinking? <VBG>
