BTW, the name is a play on one of the most fabled Companies in American Corporate History, namely Standard Oil of Pennsylvania, founded in 1868. In its heyday, before it was broken up into smaller companies, it was the largest oil company in the world. The founder was a fellow some of you may have heard of, John D. Rockefeller. Of the 33 companies that were created out of it you may be familiar with a few of the spin offs, such as Exxon, Chevron and Mobil.
Of course, the gentlemen who have formed Standard Tobacco are of gentler natures than old John D., and you may rest assured that they will not dynamite their competition.
At least I hope not...
