This is Mr Lincoln Augustus, first second cousin of Holymagiman.
I noticed this announcement about Babcock and Brown posted by ESG on 12 November 2007.
It appears to me that Babcock and Brown might be in a bit of financial strife at the moment and was wondering if the MOU would come to fruition or if it may end up aborted.
Would appreciate your learned comments MLA
