Fellow techies,
I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I have learned that Boeing
Surplus's retail store will be closing permanently at the end of this year. The last
day for retail operations will be Friday, December 21st. This decision was revealed to the
employees on July 13th. Boeing has, for unknown reasons, made no apparent effort to
publicize it.
Bruce made the local news...

"The closure has drawn the ire of Bruce Lane, a former Boeing
employee, who started a Web site, www.saveboeingsurplus.com, to stop
the closure."
