I look around at many different areas of the company including many that don't have anything to do with me. It's nice to build a realistic overall view opposed to the narrow selective view that it would appear many portray here. People say the word "most" and "every" with a lot of conviction. I can't say that "every" one I speak to likes PBS over line-bidding because I haven't spoken to "every" one. However, the majority that I have spoken to (about 200-300 FO's and junior captains) wish they could go back to the old way of bidding. Just because it works for you and the guy next to you in seniority doesn't mean it works for "most" or "100%" of the group.

Just wanted to clarify that.
Wow, I haven't met a single person that said they want to go back to what we used to have.
