Does anyone know who owns Global Certification Service, Inc. or if they are still around?

I know they pretty much do not grade coins anymore, but I have seen neat things in holders, like the waffles, minor errors, relics, etc. I am interested in putting together a project and could use some of their holders for my project. Hence, my inquiry.

Thanks in advance.

Here is a post from Conder from 2007:

"Global began operations in November of 2001 and that website has not been updated since around 2002. While the three principals listed there ARE top people, NONE of them are associated with the company today. Global started out as a legitimate grading firm but since Tom Mulvaney was a perfectionist when it came to the photography turnaround suffered and the large size of the slabs also hurt them. In order to keep capital flowing they began branching out into the promotional type items and they quickly took over the company. The three top people soon moved on. Global went low key for awhile and then bounced back somewhat with the waffle coins. Finding a promotional item slab from global isn't too difficult but and actual grading coin in a global slab is very hard to come by."

It looks like they are still registered
