Re: (Fwd) Well, Maybe One More!
funny thing about this....
in houston we had a sports/entertainment center call the summit. compaq
donated some money to the city of houston and it is now called the compaq
center.
we have a new baseball field in the process of being built. enron just
announced they will give some $100 million to the city so that it will be called
enron field.
next, will some company donate money and change the name of a city to
their name?
it appears that not only does money talk in city government but now, in
amateur radio as someone has taken a lot of money to allow swatch to do
their thing.
