[edit] Some millionaires are wealthier than others

re: Virginian_Railway#A_partnership:_The_idea_man_from_Ansted_meets_a_millionaire This sentence: "He was also a very wealthy millionaire."... just struck me as funny. Was Huttleston Rogers a multimillionaire perhaps? I'd strike very wealthy but that's just me. Anyone know how much he was worth at various points? ++Lar: t/c 15:57, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

You have a point. I'll see about changing that wording to avoid the redundancy. Vaoverland

[edit] Good article

I'm delisting this as a good article because of POV issues (for instance "In a classic story of business intrigue" and "Fortunately, Henry Rogers recovered his health") and crufty information about mailing lists. --NE2 01:37, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
