Jim, glad that helped, and like your conclusion/DD on ABF! Yes believe the stock drop was due to a 'downward' earnings surprise. Street is still in evaluation stage to see if they can deliver. And the concern that gross margins on the home delivery will be acceptable is shared.

That newcomer Bobby beat me to the heads up :-) Welcome Bobby! can tell you'll be a good contributor.

Muzzy, thanks for the additional info too.
