I agree that Jeff is an idiot but this was the biggest decision of all. It needed to be approved by the board, the largest shareholders, the banks, etc. Obviously, all the major players (excepting yourself) were in agreement that using the United brand was the most favorable course of action. How do you reconcile that FACT with your belief that the Continental brand and identity were so superior?
