David Lesar, formerly the company's chief operating officer, is now its CEO. Douglas Foshee, a former chief financial officer, is now CEO of El Paso Corp. <http://cgi.money.cnn.com/mgi/mgi_search?QUERY=EP> (EP <http://money.cnn.com/quote/quote.html?shownav=true&symb=EP> : Research <http://cnnfn.multexinvestor.com/Reports.aspx?ticker=EP> , Estimates <http://cgi.money.cnn.com/firstcall/fc?ticker=EP> ) Gary Morris, another former CFO, and Robert Muchmore, a former controller, were also named. " (The funny thing is when you read this article in this week's Seven Days:) http://sevendaysvt.com/columns.html (which produces this quote:) "Shakespeare did not have Tom Good in mind, of course, when he wrote, 'What's in a name?' But the Bard probably would have enjoyed the contrasting monikers of the Montpelier resident and his fictitious alter-ego: Rob Moore. Tall and bearded, Good is a 41-year-old, single, self-employed architect who specializes in environmentally responsible projects. The identical-looking Rob Moore heads the Vermont chapter of Billionaires for Bush, a protest group that uses satirical street theater to skewer greedy, right-wing capitalists. Although "B4B" has some adherents in France, Germany, Australia and South Korea, it is primarily a homegrown phenomenon with about 64 branches in 27 states. They strike out with an array of clever battle cries, such as 'Hands Off Halliburton' and 'Leave No Billionaire Behind.'" _______________________________________________ heads mailing list [email protected] http://ballistichelmet.org/mailman/listinfo/heads/ http://ballistichelmet.org/donate/
