on the line I hear a lot of "looking back now..." from guys who are still steaming about the 1996 contract and how they had these home shows in peachtree city warning about the dire consequences of not passing a contract that made millionaires out of the people warning about the dire consequences of not passing the contract.

Lots of venting. I just listen and poke for more.

While I wasn't at Delta then, that sounds like a lot of spin from the other direction. Made the chicken littles millionaires? I would ask how so?
