[edit] Financials

[edit] Complete Misinformation

This article definitely needs a rewrite, as many of its statements are blatantly false. Numero and Jones didn't "usher in the era of frozen foods", as mechanically cooled refrigeration vehicles were in use a full decade before their patent, and mechanically cooled refrigerated boxcars were in use worldwide a full forty years before this article says they "invented" it. At best, they held patents for specific designs of technology that was in practical use at, bare minimum, a full decade for each technology claimed invented by them.

As well, I just checked the Thermo King website, and a significant amount of this article is lifted word-for-word from it.24.76.165.69 (talk) 21:29, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
