Pay now, get more later from DALPA, like it's been for the past few years.
And management says: Look over at APA, and see how far being "hard nosed" will get you...

Not that I love DALPA, but beating your chest with an empty threat doesn't pump me up and I am damned sure it doesn't scare management.
