I think there's more of a need for China-based domestic services centered on the huge flow of products from China to North America. The current trucking capabilities are very fragmented ... Our belief is that companies like ours understand how to efficiently move large volumes on a continental or long-haul basis, and we are evaluating how we can assist companies that want to perform that type of transportation.
