Encourage them why don't you. Seriously though, might you not
consider a second path to the sea. We've been doing that for
many years, and lately it has been especially reassuring
to have bankrupt-big-guy diversity. My current provisioning
rule is to have no more than 2 out of 3 upstreams in bankruptcy
at any one time. Of course, we allow the 3rd to be near bankruptcy,
with an occaisional liquidity crisis.
