Like I've said before, I am all in favor of dfw getting their own local, just now isn't the time. As for the decreasing ask, just look at all the infighting caused by a simple petition. You don't think that knowing the ask for a 12 year cap went from 350.96 down to 348.23 is going to cause turmoil? Can you imagine if they had the audacity to go to a 15 yr scale? What if the slope increased .005 degrees?

Remember, we are talking about people that refuse to use their own laptop to complete a one-time training module because the company didn't buy them said laptop. People that would go through the monkey-motion of relaying a complex message to DX via a not so pilot savvy ops agent instead of the much easier (AND SAFER) cell phone call because the company doesn't give them a company phone. BTW, my room doesn't have a tub, and where's my %^$& grab and go?
