Not exactly home, but interesting...



I hate to see a 130 year old company being sold. Of course, they did some buying over the years themsleves.

For a company that made machines that dug the Panama Canal they had a good run. It isn't that they were so bad but the bigger fish just ate them. A down year or quarter isn't much for a long range company.
