--------------------------------------------
DuPont is a science company, delivering science-based solutions in markets
such as food and nutrition, health care, apparel, home and construction,
electronics and transportation.
Two hundred years ago, DuPont was primarily an explosives company. One
hundred years ago, our focus turned to global chemicals, materials and
energy. Today, entering our third century, we deliver science-based
solutions that make real differences in real lives. Look closely at the
things around your home and, chances are, you'll find a DuPont imprint.
Our ability to adapt to change and our foundation of unending scientific
inquiry enabled this two-century journey to becoming one of the world's most
innovative companies. But, in the face of constant change, innovation and
discovery, our core values have remained constant: commitment to safety,
health and the environment; integrity and high ethical standards; and
treating people with fairness and respect.
What has this commitment allowed us to accomplish? Take a look:
2001 revenues: $24 billion
Net income of $2.3 billion.
Employees: 85,000. Approximately 1/2 work outside the United States.
Global: Operating in 70 countries worldwide. 135 manufacturing and
processing facilities.
R&D: More than 40 research and development and customer service labs in the
United States, and more than 35 labs in 11 other countries

Sounds horrible... ;-)
Well, you are really an old company! There anyhow, was a certain smell
of "cultural adverti***t" in your explanation of your company... :)
Those numbers must mean money, I suppose? I guess they are in the
Italian Liras (not used any more), or perhaps in the Turkish currency? ;)
(And I do not anyhow understand those economical terms like "revenue"
and "net income"! And by the way "billion" here is called "milliard",
if I am not totally confused? How do you call "1000 000000"? In Europe
(GB exluded?) that is a "milliard". In US I guess it is a "billion"?)
So you are a very international company? And still my only knowledge
comes from the car paintings of the N4! Have you ever thought of your
company's international image? Perhaps there is somehing to work on? :-)

Never argue with an idiot. He brings you down to his level, then beats you
