Sure, we have some smart people up in management. Then we have had some "not so smart" ones, like the some who thought the -700 was bigger than the -400; true story.
We should never forget that we've been very blessed, lucky, or whatever you want to call it. I cringe every time our management pipes in with their arrogance, aka big watch-small d**k syndrome. Arrogance is the root of downfall, as my mamma used to say.
