Just a few days after the twilight of their broadcasts of the Metropolitan Opera, Chevron-Texaco, Inc reported record revenues for the most recent quarter. The Financial Times said that just in the past three months, C/T netted over 2-billion dollars US. As a result of recent increases in gas prices at the pump, and the failure of heating oil prices to decline in the spring, oil companies are swimming in profits like Scrooge McDuck. Maybe Chev/Tex is sorry they let this positive PR sponsorship go away... for some opinion-leaders, it was the only source of good will any oil company offered. Laurence Glavin Methuen, MA
