Since you asked for it...

I think it is a slap in the face of ALPA to have some extremely pro-ALPA pilot print erroneous information regarding ASA's TA in an effort to get ALPA on property. I don't think he was misinformed when he wrote this letter. I have met him and he seems to be a pretty sharp guy. I would be shocked if I were ALPA having someone write a letter on our behalf and putting in misleading information.
