It's more important for this plan to be based on conservative assumptions."[/quote] <a href="http://money.cnn.com/2006/09/15/news/companies/ford/index.htm?postversion=2006091518">http://money.cnn.com/2006/09/15/news/companies/ford/index.htm?postversion=2006091518</a> Also, for some reason I like the wording in the article as decribing the announcement of plant closings and wage cuts as "unveiling." It adds an air of excitement and intrigue. "Now let me whisk away the magic cloth and.....SURPRISE! You're poor!"[/quote]
