I just have to laugh at the premise, which is basically what I said a few posts prior,about your attitude, you want a trophy for coming in 5th place, because it's "just not fair!" (insert visual of a little girl stomping her feet). You might want to head up to Seattle where getting stoned is legal, just walk away from the keyboard after you light up.
On a different note, the other night in the ASC, I saw a few NURPS, one who I know, from ANC huddled up in the ASC in deep discussion, and you could see the fear in their eyes.. I think something big is going to go down here soon,and I know some of the NURPS are nervous. Hopefully it won't affect any IPA bro's
I like the nine year-old girl soccer player analogy...funny stuff. And being the wizard-of-smart that he is (and likely a desciple of one of the Falujans) I'd love to hear how he'd implement such a Marxist scheme and how he'd delineate responsibility and accountability for a given flight. Also...there is another fault in his "logic". If he's for equal pay for both seats, then he shouldn't have problems with NURPs who leapfrog into the left seat...many of them are fellow traveler masterminds who deserve to be captains because the are just so darned brilliant...like he is.
