Mentec were one of several companies bought by an outfit called Calyx.
Read the press releases and related coverage, if you wish, but you'll
probably be not much better informed. I didn't see much of a fit
between Calyx and the pieces of Mentec we know round here, but I think
Mentec were at one time a bigger company than we saw round here.
