Yes in our case the 13-15 longevity steps would be eliminated and that money would be absorbed into the lower lingevities to top out at year 12 making what would take you three extra years under our current contract. More money sooner. The top is still the top it just would happen at year 12 not 15. Right now our top scale is $185 and AA is $228, but if you look at year 12 it's $228 and $170 respectively. Don't you think the guys we have hitting 15 years would have liked to have been at the top of the scale 3 years ago?
