I guess if reality doesn't fit your argument you have to come up with your own reality.
I can assure you that you would have to search far and wide (outside of USAPA) to find anyone that believes that statement...there is no way on god's green earth that USAPA would exist absent the NIC...USAPA was a creation to overturn the Nic award, to renege on your promise to abide by binding arbitration. A very sordid affair for most of us on the outside looking in.
