since brucepr has stated that INDEXU is experiencing the summer doldrums and thus little activity, I thought maybe we could liven things up until folks return in September.
Having been a pilot in my early life i thought the comments below were hilarious.
UPS is the only major airline that has never, ever, had an accident. So here are some funnies about them.
