Alabama's Weathiest Man: a Billionaire

     Bloomburg tells the story of Gary Neil Drummond, heir to a coal mining fortune...and murder allegation too.
     He's got more money that anybody else in Alabama.
    Think of him as they anti-poverty resident of the state.
     His offices were in the same building as WERC Radio in Birmingham when I worked there. I think we shared an elevator once.
 
   Drummond has been trying to sell it's Columbian interests, but apparently has not yet done so. Recently they were being investigated regarding a spill of coal into the water.
