So what are we saying??

10 percent?

Or sell everything to DHL?
They'll do it about 5 years after Fed Ex furloughs because we always seem to copy them at about that interval (UPS pretty much only does anything original with trucks and boring TV ads). But by then the economy will be humming along yet again off another scheme that will fail in ten years and get bailed out by the taxpayer.

If DHL falls apart I see a remote chance of it, but we'll be the last on the block to do so.
