    Well,

    they're running ads in the deep southeast !!!!!

    That could be a sign.

    Also, like most other outfits, they tightened up their belts.........

    trying to outlast this little recession !!!!

    Unfortunately this little recesssion is lasting alot longer than most companies expected.

    Thus, the weak ones fall along the wayside..............eventually !!

    Maybe they're morphing into a regional carrier.

    Here's an article in LandLine that expands on C&G's comments: http://www.landlinemag.com/todays_news/Daily/2011/Apr11/040411/040411-02.shtml.

    Saltchuk seems to be heavily involved in shipping, and I suspect that could mean more intermodal or container loads for IDC.
