Lee and Marty Seham run the firm that DPA is using for the card drive. They are an extremely sharp group of attorneys, and we are lucky to have them on our side as opposed to management having them. While it is currently fashionable to slam the Seham firm because they have been such a thorn in ALPA's side, I just thought some might enjoy this note to Marty Seham. It was from three pilots from Continental's old union. One of the signatures is that of John Prater...former president of ALPA.

I thought you were the other Carl for a second.
You vilify Prator for the better part of the last year because he made 500K while President of ALPA. Now
he's okay with you because he wrote a thank you note in the year 2000 to his lawyer and that supports your position?
Are you a good Prator or a bad Prator? Who's wearing the ruby slippers Carl?
BTW. Who keeps handwritten notes from 10 years ago! Talk about teenage-girl-keepsake-box-angst.
CAL got rid of them and the entire law firm keeps a hand written note as an endorsement of support? Give me a break. Law firms keep their record of wins as the endorsements, not thank you notes.
Ooops. You are right. I missed the first line where they gave him an engraved brass plate. Isn't that another issue you have? Engraving costs, right?
Let's look more at the note. What
generosity did the Seehams show the CAL pilots that got them their new found quality of life?
What does that mean? What law firm operates on
generosity?
How much
generosity are they showing TC and friends in their non-profit entity?
