Then I found a document that they put out advising of massive future growth in water. They even point out of immediate growth in western Europe. Basically guiding all their wealthy clients to invest in water. Maybe FG are being put under pressure to push it through. Beats me why they would put themselves through this otherwise.

B. the distinct possibility that IW (along with our PPS numbers) could be sold off to the highest bidder in the future. anyone that says it wont happen needs to look at the world news a little more. it can and IS happening at an alarming rate. C. the billing system. how is it fair that a low paid single mother of 1 could end up paying the same amount as a single mother of 1 on 100,000 per annum. (thats an extreme case im using to highlight the madness of it)
