[AlpacaTalk] Re: Fwd: Thanks for all your sharing
Okay,
So the only thing that I can find on the mysterious buyer is a
corporation that has another corporation attached to it
.Seems like a
big circle of business to me
. I can tell you that this particular
company has been around since 1936
yes '36. That is not a type-o.
The first corp is "The Coporation Company" then the next was "CT
Corporation Systems" . Then it's "Linbar Business Center
Associates" Which incorped 6/29/07.
Soooo I can't find a name to see who actually owns the corps
..
Now this is fun! 
Go Servant GO!
