Sometimes it's difficult to tell whether you really are this ignorant or whether you're just being stubborn now that you've been busted for blatant inaccuracy. Our percentage of EASK's in this joint venture are down from where they are contractually required to be. Since the measuring metric is a percentage, that can ONLY mean that the Euro's percentage of EASK's are above where they are contractually required to be. It's not arguable...it's math. You continuing to argue against it is wrecking any shred of credibility you may have had remaining.

See above.

Actually, George's post was a very astute (and funny) analogy of your communication skills. Once you've built your wrong analysis of data, no amount of direct factual conversation will change you. At least in the cockpit, the copilot can take the airplane away from you and perform a go around.
