[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 993474, member: 22880"] Nope... I will say this, bbsam's "source" back in March nailed the impending October Surprise (without realizing it at the time). I spent a lot of time asking my sources back then regarding his information, and they didn't have anything come up that they were aware of (they KNEW the change was coming, just didn't know it was imminent). So the value of having multiple sources of information became quite evident from that series of events. What is of relevance (with regards to bbsam's posting about a regional level meeting - maybe posted in another thread), is that the Ground network is getting ready to do some significant expansion. This has already been discussed in this forum earlier. If you were to go back in forum history (over 12 months ago, maybe as recent as March-April), one of the things I posted for all to be aware of (regarding part of the shifting of volume over to Ground) was a notification to Ground ISP/IC to get ready to make a significant expansion fo their capability. Well... I'll bet dollars to doughnuts, that this meeting is going to have a LOT to do with notifying ISP/IC to anticipate a 10-20% increase in volume over the next few months - and that they'd better be prepared for it. Other than that, no "new" info. I have been doing some calling in regards to two other issues (two posters here know of one, one poster knows of the other - check gmail...), but nothing that warrants open public discussion. There does seem to be a pattern within FedEx of having "bursts" of information every 3 months. Can't explain it, there just seems to be a quarterly pattern of info "dumps", then things get a bit quiet (then activity here starts to pickup as that advanced info starts getting implemented in the field).
