Albief,
I think you are usually the voice of reason. And i applaud your positive centrist comments. But I take exception to your last post.....all of it.

I shouldn't have to give up ANYTHING so YOU can get home earlier (I'm one of those Emirates FC flyers). I shouldn't have to give up anything for your kids education. I could go on and on.

The point is....We should have all gained....not given up. You seem happy at how much you gained....at the expense of others...that comes across as beneath you.

It seems this contract is a boon for some....for others...not so much.

I'll miss chasing women all over Asia....lol
