>>> also tonight, the u.s. postal service struggling to survive has sent congress its list of more than 200 sorting facilities that plan to close down now, slowing down delivery of first-class mail and costing 35,000 jobs.
>>> finally sears reported some dismal numbers today for the fourth quarter of last year, a loss of $2.5 billion. they'll spin off parts of the company to hang on, but they'll keep brands like kenmore and craftsman.
