I do not disagree with the points made concerning the expensive nature of cdg/hkg. However, two key points that have I have not seen addressed is the virtual requirement of private school education in the culturally diverse domicile of MEM. (Granted, one doesn't not have to live within 100 miles of MEM, THANK YA JEEESUS!!) 2, What kind of leverage does the Association have negotiating this LOA. We can't strike over this issue. The NMB cannot Mediate this issue. If someone is perceptive enough to see where we have traction on this issue, please teach grasshoppa.
