If they are trying to reduce it, because it's costing them serious money now, would that really be a "sudden" surprise to anyone?



So you are "perfectly willing" to trade PS. I didn't think you would be, but sorry you can count me as one who would not trade profit sharing for another DB promise. I'd rather they just pay me, I'll make the determination of where I'll put the money.



Reprehensible, or expected? Do any of us really believe that they would show up without a list? We have ours, they have theirs, why does that seem like a surprise, or "reprehensible" and not just a part of the negotiating process? I try to keep the emotion out of it.
