SOFA, I don't know the answer to your question. My opinion doesn't matter, but I think you may be right. It is my guess that DALPA can't do anything about this question until 2016 PS is distributed in February 2017. As of right now, there is nothing to grieve. Once PS is distributed, we are harmed and can seek redress. We have to have real damages, not theoretical damages. You can't be proactive about it.

Given that most of DALPA's resources and attention is on current negotiations, I think this issue is on the back burner and the stove is turned off. Hopefully, we will have settled the contract by then and we can pursue this further after February.
