Today is Thanksgiving in the US and I'd like to take a moment to thank some of the folks who have helped the TCN during 2014. First, the following advertisers: Connected Vehicle Trade Association, Cubic Transportation Systems, GEWI, GovScience Partners, HERE, IBTTA, INRIX, IRF, Iteris, ITS 3C Summit, ITS America, Meetings Northwest, Mitsubishi Electric, Noblis, Norwalk Transit District and Qvision Technology. I also want to thank all those who contributed to the TCN during my May and November fundraising months. Finally, I want to thank YOU for being a reader of the TCN.
