Huge layoff Friday. 

For those of you freaking out keep these things in mind.

1. Bankruptcy protection is there for the consumer as well.  In this case it 
will help to keep the CnMeastro lights on.
2. There are plans in the works for PTP,PMP, Cnmaeatro and a few other lines 
(not epmp as last known).
3. The finance bros want some sort of money back out.  Even if it is pennies on 
the dollar.


FOlks freaking out just need to chill.
