Nope, that is our Saginaw plant that we took over from Delphi in 2008 on a 5 year contract to help GM out when Delphi went into bankruptcy. It is TRW management has been running it with Delphi/GM labor. I know TRW / GM have been trying to work it out since summer but I guess they could not. In fact I was told about 2:00 today that we will taking over all the past model service parts out of there and the list was about 200 part numbers and we have to find somewhere to make them so I will be buried more than I am now.

My friend Mike Hazel (Henry J) works there in I.T. And sent me a email last week to keep him in mind if I hear of something. He has been with TRW for over 20 years.
