Hard time now, harder times ahead.

I wish I could give good news, but I'm in SE Michigan, and few places are harder hit.

I'm in boat plants all over the US and Europe and it doesn't look like anyone is doing anything until Feb or March 2009.

Only those companies without alot of debt, or those not owned by venture companies will survive.
