I was called an idiot by someone for saying what I thought was going to happen, and then that same person went around and made one of his own predictions. I was pointing out his hypocracy.

I'm just stating what I think this means for the industry. Most of you don't believe me and say I'm being dramatic or drinking the coolaid, I say I'm being realistic and you are deluding yourselves.

I suspect the worthwhile jobs will no longer exist in 20-30 years. Will the legacies vanish? I don't know, I think that over a long enough period of time, the chances are nearly 100%. We are now effectively playing by a new set of rules, NAI and the companies that will follow will be playing by the new rules while United et al. will be playing by the old ones. But in my opinion it is safe to say that it will be almost impossible for someone applying to a legacy today to secure a permenant, rewarding spot on a legacy seniority list. Most of you don't want to hear it, or worse are clinging to hopeless salvation by stupid things like NAI not being able to secure slots or having fuel dispatch difficulties.
