Exclamation Expected Delphi strike about to occur?

People have been expecting Delphi to strike for several months. It appears that this strike may finally eventuate as the negotiations in the US between the company and the unions are starting to go sour:

Hopefully the strike does not occur otherwise many companys will grind to a halt.

This is bad news indeed.
I was led to believe that if Delphi strike, GM are basically finished.

Chance of Delphi striking increases with each passing day.

They don't have the balls. They've been threatening it for weeks with absolutely no action. Don't hold your breath waiting for this one.
