First. Newk.

I don't even know why I am talking to you. Your #@%# bears beat my Cam. And it wasn't even the @%#%^ bears. It was that @#%@3 Hester guy again.

I would love for DPA to be the answer, but it isn't. Given where this industry is going, and what we will be dealing with in the next decade, a National Union with localized MEC's is the only way to fight against the effects of Transnational airlines. Ergo, we have to fix it. If we as a group choose not to, we will suffer the effects of turning inward.
this is what I am thinking - there is no better man to have at the helm of our union as we battle transgender airlines than Carl Spackler.
