Good news is ... the house did not burn down and the musical equipment was unplugged.
Bucking Bar, Sorry about your house. Had the same thing happen to me once in NC. Fried everything at the time. Good time to update with new stuff.
On another subject about a meeting we both claim to have been out where JC demanded ALPA merger policy for Comair. A post has been made on the Dalpa forum by one of the inside players that describes in Delta how Dalpa approached management with a program to give ASA and Comair pilots a seniority number at Delta. Management approved it. The ASA and Comair pilots lead by JC refused it completely and went back to their demands for a full merger with ALPA merger policy. You have to wonder how different your career at Delta would have been if they had said yes to a ground breaking program. I don't have permission to copy his name and the post but I will PM it to you.
