Corpora: company/business names

[wmfisher at attglobal.net]

I've sent Ray a file of corporate names that I picked
up a year or two ago, from I'm not sure where.
It was compiled by Eric Iverson.  If anybody else
wants a copy, let me know. It's about 1.8 mb.

Dear list members,

Does anybody have or know of a good list of company/business names?  My
intent is to gather a thorough list of company/business names to aid in
recognition of named entities for automated parsers.  This list will
preferably have the company names classified by business type.  Any help
would be appreciated.
