Objects in Mirror: April 15, 2008 Archive

I've read that the NWA-Delta merger draws mixed reactions. That isn't surprising, considering some of us still call Macy's "Dayton's." Deal details will be released in a press conference later this morning, and I'll update the article with info as it comes in.

Bob Collins also assembled a "What's it mean to me?" list... You can submit questions for Bob about the merger and he'll pursue the answer.

Meanwhile, we want to know what it does mean to you. Join our open online discussion. Comments and links to your own related Gather articles are welcome.
