Last June, Caterpillar paid $690 million – $475 million of which was cash – for a Hong Kong-based company called ERA Mining Machinery, which makes coal-mining equipment through a subsidiary in China called Zhengzhou Siwei Mechanical & Electrical Manufacturing. Caterpillar last week said it found "deliberate, multi-year, coordinated accounting misconduct" at Siwei. It said the tip-off came in November when it did a physical inventory count at Siwei and found it didn't match what the books showed

From WikiPedia: "Peter M. Holt (born July 26, 1948 in Peoria, Illinois) is a businessman. He is the CEO of Holt Cat, the largest Caterpillar dealership in the United States and chairman, CEO, and owner of Spurs Sports & Entertainment, which owns the 4-time NBA champion San Antonio Spurs, the WNBA's San Antonio Silver Stars, the AHL's San Antonio Rampage, and the NBA Development League's Austin Toros."
Also from WikiPedia: "Caterpillar Inc. also known as "CAT", is an American corporation which designs, manufactures, markets and sells machinery and engines and sells financial products and insurance to customers via a worldwide dealer network.[2][3] Caterpillar is the world's largest manufacturer of construction and mining equipment, diesel and natural gas engines and industrial gas turbines.[2] With more than US$70 billion in assets, Caterpillar was ranked number one in its industry and number 44 overall in the 2009 Fortune 500.[6"
Two different en ies with different ownership groups.
Try Jim Dolan and Jimmy Buss on for size if you're looking for an owner that throws stacks of good money after bad, based on their whims of the moment and desire to show they're wearing big boy pants.
You do know Holt Cat isn't Caterpillar, right?
Hopefully Mills and Baynes don't bring in a wave of TDMVPDPOYs.
He's this board's Simple Jack, which is maybe why I find him entertaining. If Australia has a lot more where that came from, that could be bad.
i think too highly of the Aussies for this ..... and boomersgold isnt THAT much better than this kangaroo clown, tbh.
damn does this guy ever make a good post...completely off the mark. 24k posts holy lol.
Dog Dumb tbh.
you all....how dare you insult Aussies by referring to us being anything like that TDMVPDPOY s ...
In all honesty, he is a pure embarrassment an embarrassment only partly alleviated by the ignore function...even seeing his ignored posts embarrasses me knowing the digital bowel movement that likely unfortunately travelled from that moron to the webpage...
take it easy man...
I'm a Kiwi and I think Aussies suck, but I know you aren't all as bad as TDMVPDPOY
I find aussies outside of melbourne/sydney to be pretty ing stupid. so many bogans
..... but, how do you really feel?
you tellin me that Australia is filled with defensive Centerpieces??
As an aussie i can tell you all we are not all dumbasses like the thread starter.........
Sup MI!
Melbourne is bogan capital. Sydney features a lot of men whom enjoy other men as bedfellows.
Bit of a generalisation dont you think?
I moved from MEL to Bris 10 years ago for work.....that makes me a bogan?
Sounds like you and TDMVPKNOBDPOY went to the same special school tbh.
Sup? (Sorry, I'm not sure who you are but I'm going to guess one of the OG Aussie posters from way back!?!?)
Yeah dude....Mr.T.Dunkonyoazz from the other joint!! Been lurking here for years, thought i'd get off my lazy azz.
