    Yep, it's slowly creeping around here... called around to a few places to see how their doing and Bodow said they might be closing by the end of February and so might Empire. Metallico said their just barely getting buy. When I called over to Weitsman just to check they said people are flocking to their yard like it's Christmas and project the same reaction when the Oswego yard is up and running. I give it a few months and they'll be the only yard in the area. Nothing's changed with them though: hours, pricing or labor's the same. They doing something we don't know about? Curbco around here stopped when NY passed the EScrap bill, which I thought was going to benefit scrappers but it actually hurt us instead. It took the ball and put it into big corporate's court.
