Ah, there we go. Just wanted to make sure.

That's an interesting (and offensive) way to characterize it.

Edit - Also, they weren't "claiming poverty." Might want to read the article again.

Did anyone else know that the Ridgid company was a division of Emerson? Somehow I was completely oblivious that until a few days ago when I looked at the tag on a chop saw.

I think they're hoping a camel can squeeze through the eye of a needle.

The conflict potentially puts August Busch III in an awkward position as well. Busch, CEO of Anheuser-Busch for more than two decades, is on the Emerson board of directors. Another former A-B director, Carlos Fernandez, also is on Emerson's board. Fernandez is CEO of Grupo Modelo, one of the brewers deemed acceptable under Emerson's new policy.

Meanwhile, Anheuser-Busch issued a challenge to Emerson executives.

"As leaders in the St. Louis community, we will continue our commitment and would expect that Emerson would do the same," Peacock said. "We hope Emerson will join us in committing $2 million to the St. Louis United Way, as we committed to months ago after the (InBev) transaction closed."
