Why is it that you believe it will have such a dramatic effect? Or are you merely picking fly specks out of pepper? Lee doesn't vote for any of us. He will only be a rubber stamp on the first page of our contract. Or will this launch black helicopters so thick that they will scare the negotiators into bringing forth some sort of agreement that, even though distasteful to 12,000 pilots, will garner enough support to pass? Fear? That is the effect that these "statements" will produce? Really? It is a real shame that you have so little confidence in our negotiators.

I'll be honest with you. I haven't read that article because I don't care what he said. I will still read the TA, and I will still vote up or down based on its' merits. YMMV... (apparently)
