Stoke the fires and support your negotiators. It ain't about ABX vs. Astar. The enemy here is DHL and I want to know who might show up on our (ABX and ASTAR's) ramp next.

There are 2 problems here. Yes, ASTAR and ABX need to watch our collective backs, and DHL is the real problem. However, the ALPA lawsuit is a mighty big impediment to cooperation. If the ASTAR guys really want to keep the status quo at ILN, get Earl to straighten out ALPA national (which I am sure is really behind the suit)
