The list is already known. The database has nothing to do with the list per se. All that someone did was to compile a picture list using all the Saving Continental Airlines Brotherhood pilots, their pictures from the database and their DOB from the system seniority list.

The database serves a purpose. When I have had a pay issue in the past, I have called the crewpay person directly after looking up their number in the directory. I've had to call a few people in other departments, too. I'm not sure what the issue is with having this directory. I'm sure YOUR side of the company has a phone directory/database somewhere as well. It doesn't serve some nefarious purpose. It's normal in businesses worldwide to be able to find the contact information of someone in another area in the company.
