You're talking about the survey results. I've never advocated releasing the entire survey. But you could easily release a tantalizing summary of what this pilot group expects. More importantly, DALPA could release an even more tantalizing statement saying that management had better be reaching for their wallets. That of course is not happening. What IS happening is DALPA saying: "...we've heard you loud and clear." OK then.

I wish I could share in your optimism, but I can only go on what I've seen in writing. So far, I've only seen our Council 20 chairman state: "...and of course we will not be releasing the opener to the members. That would be like showing your hand in poker." Again, I've seen nothing to refute that statement.

That it does.
