Here's a little bit of bad press on driving while Auto PCing:

washingtonpost.com

Be careful out there.

On a more upbeat note, according to the Memphis Times of January 14, Federal Express will upgrade its cargo fleet of 334 planes with Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Systems over a four year period. The company is also going to a Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System, although it would prefer to upgrade ASAP to the still-developing ADS-B. (The difference is that the traffic alert system gives only an aural warning, while the ADS-B system will put a "controller's-eye view" in front of a pilot.) The ADS-B system is being tested this year.

Relax. *I* didn't call IR in a panic, if you look at my original post, it says:

"We're down ~8.5% today, and I just can't find any info on why. Anyone have any ideas?"

I'ld like to know just what in that implies a panic.

If Ernie Kelley decided to call IR on this, I can't stop him, and think that he should call IR / do research if he's got concerns.

This thread has been a VERY helpful source of information, and I'ld rather you didn't stand in the way. Maybe you're the one who's "wrapped a bit too tight" if you have to act as the thread's police and offer insults like above.

Now, if we can get back to TRMB...

Sincerely,

Hans Hohenner

Lets not get personal here, I turned on my computer and got a quote on TRMB that was in the low 20's, about 10% down for the day and below a short term support level. I checked a few news sources and couldn't find anything, then checked SI and the only post was someone else that was wondering why. So I made a call to see if I was missing anything. I had a nice talk with a gal in IR and relayed what I had found out. I think that was just a good idea not to let things catch me by surprise.
Happy investing, Ernie
