I not only watched it, I posted it. You on the other hand, lied about what was in it in the hopes we would just believe you. The PowerPoint says NOTHING of what you claim. My reps tell me that the NMB said NOTHING close to what you claim. I've repeatedly asked you to post any evidence from the PowerPoint or from anyone who was in the room. You did nothing but slink away in the hopes people would forget about your shameful lie.
Yes they did. But that's not what you claimed. You claimed that the NMB "made it clear to us" that if we wanted to be tough (as defined by you I guess), the NMB was prepared to park us and make this a very long process. The NMB said NO SUCH THING.

Carl, Find my post where I said anything about being tough. By the way here is what my rep emailed me about the meeting. Go back and ask your reps if he is lying. Please note this was a open session. A friend in attendance confirmed essentially the same things.
At the
open session brief with Linda Puchala, she told the MEC in a round about manner:
1. You are too big to strike.
2. Any representational questions (DPA) will lead to inaction and withdrawal on the NMB's part.
3. The Delta pilot group might make the appearance of progress down the path towards a release by the NMB, but at the end there are the two last steps.
A. If there is a PEB, the President will put you back to work.
B. After a PEB the Delta pilots might think that congress would never be able to act fast enough to put us back to work through legislation. Linda said, put that out of your mind. The legislation is written with the Delta pilot's name already filled in the blank.
This underscores the importance of making gains outside the normal Section 6 process
