If they pass us in pay again maybe the snap up plays, maybe it doesn't but we'll have gotten a raise and Delta will have raised the bar when we go back into Sec 6 in three years."

No one I know thinks this TA will fail, probably in the 68/32 range give or take a few points, we'll know on the 22nd... Then it's up to you guys.
