I knew it, I f-----g knew it. The "talks" re-convened last month was simply more can-kicking. I haven't read it yet, but if it is a microwaved LBFO, I will flush it. We've come this far. We can go farther.

Here's the deal... I can guarantee that AMR and their giant team of suits examined minutely every aspect of the operation after the contract abrogation. They came up with a brilliant evil plan... "Let's pretend like we are intimidated and call for talks. Watch and record what happens to the operation after the APA comes back to the table." Thus, they now have proof that "something" was happening to their operation during the abrogation period, and if it happens again, they can run sniveling to the Judge and whine "LOOK, LOOK, they are doing it again! Make them stop, make them stop! Fine them $50,000,000, put their leaders in jail!"

We MUST do the nuclear option. Dissolve the APA, disburse the funds to the membership evenly. There is no more union, thus no union to sanction. AMR will have to deal with 10,000 independent contractors.
