owner of Severstal Steel bought out our company in 2008 then a few years later sold the company when
the USA and Russian relations started going south. Believe it or not Severstal treated us better than any of
our American owners. According to Wikipedia Mordachov is Russia's richest person that is if you don't count Putin.
