But "insider" trading exists all over the world. Back when I was
working in the oil field you can't imagine the number of drilling crew
members who absolutely had to contact their wife if we brought in a
good fat exploration well. 

We got a very nice 3 year contract because one of our employees heard
an oil company manager mention, in a bar, "I wish I knew a good
company to do that project". We made sure that as soon as his office
opened the next morning somebody was standing at the door to tell him.
