Commuting
As a commuter I am sick of the commuter/ non commuter threads. We are expanding into the busiest most delayed airspace in the world (NYC), with fewer seats (econ comfort) and with that expansion creating hundreds of new commuters. Get over it. If you are not a commuter as it has been said before its better if you understand the plight of commuters and help better commuters lives too here's why.
The easier it is too commute the less we (commuters) will require contractual protections for commuters and guess what that means more attention paid to pay rates, schedules etc. If we are over 50 percent of the pilots at delta we have a majority.

Everyone will be affected if we operate less reliably canceled flights, more reserves working, more reroutes etc.
This commuter/non-commuter debate is very similar to other fights we have had within our profession that have had adverse effects for EVERYONE. Age 65, RJs and now big RJs.
the more we work together, learn together and support ourselves together the better we will be.
