Fastest 5 Minutes: Government Shutdown
Q: What should we be doing now, today, in light of these issues?

Fastest 5 Minutes: Government Shutdown
Q: What about recovery for increased costs? I know a lot of companies are wondering about the likelihood of being able to recover those increased costs.

Q: Can you give us that background?
