Talk:Conoco

message: Using Moody’s Industrials Manual, 1960, I have added the correct corporation description.
I note that CONOCO failed to hold to this in their Prospectus description of the corporation that was “spun off” from du Pont in 1998. I believe that this was too minor of a Securities Fraud for the SEC to be bothered with. 
The Continental Oil Company that du Pont bought in the 1981 is the Marland Oil Company that was incorporated in 1920, trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Only the name changed in 1929. This corporation never dissolved while a subsidiary of du Pont and so it is the corporation that is traded today as CONOCO.

:I was really confused when I read this article so I look at the history, and it looks like it became confusing when you added some information out of chronological order.  What information did you add exactly?  Do you think you could re-add it in chronological order with what is there now?  It doesn't make sense to me to start the article with when it was incorporated, but rather when it was founded.  Make sense? Ugly Elephant 13:56, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
