Sailing, I like your posts. You deliver your point of view with a Joe Friday delivery. I would imagine that you are very straight forward in your approach to life. Some here take it as condescending, but I believe it is just a reflection of personality and conviction. I actually prefer it to the chest thumping hype that also permeates this board, but... let me offer this.

The really good posters balance their message with expertise, insight, affability, humor, and a willingness to exchange ideas. I'm thinking NewKnow, Bar, Buzzpat, Denny, et al. Perhaps you could include a joke or throw DPA a small compliment. You don't have to mean it. Or you could just get crazy and post dirty pics. At least Timbo would approve.
I should throw DPA a compliment. When they first started their organization drive they put out a well thought out letter about unity being essential to getting the best contract possible. They set a drop dead date for their effort to insure they would not strip money out of pilots pockets by causing division at critical times. It was a excellent factual letter.
