2. All of the above examples you mention had direct negotiations going on for years before any NMB involvement. That can't happen with us because our contract stipulates NMB involvement 90 days after our contract's amendable date. This precludes management from dragging their feet.
Do you not think these represent two very big differences between us and any other recent Section 6?

Well, I thought you knew how this worked, but I was wrong. My mistake. Either you don't understand how a section six works, or you are pushing an agenda. But you're always pushing an agenda.
Johnso had it right, Carl. You're wrong. You used to be right most of the time, but you are so Don Quixote right now that everything is a windmill.
