While reading the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act article I noticed that "grease payment" was not wikilinked and not even red-linked anywhere in wikipedia. Quite surprising, if you notice that "facilitating payments" has a whooping half-thou Google Books hits, not to say tens of thous regular google hits. Laudak 01:52, 28 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
