From my skimming, I think you're admitting you got your first bullet point wrong. Your dates are just flat wrong. Now to your angst regarding dues' ability to go up 0.5% without MEMRAT for clearly defined special circumstances...I'm fine with that. ALPA can (and has) made major changes to our contract via LOA's. No MEMRAT. But if you now have MEMRAT fervor, I'm good with that too. You put forth a resolution to your block rep requiring MEMRAT for a 0.5% dues increase for special circumstances, and I'll back you.
Is this horse still twitching? Shall we move on to the second bullet point of your first laundry list from yesterday?

We've never had the vote for LOAs and ALPA has always had a vote for dues and assessments. The DPA has codified an automatic dues increase without a vote for specific events. This can not happen today.
MEMRAT for everything is a different bullet point. It's not a laundry list. My exception was to the Constitution the list was some example for discussion. If you're bored with discussion then I'm sure you don't need to participate.
