You know what the replies to this line of thinking are....

1) It's not so bad, I spent 3 years on the panel. FDA's will be an adventure and you will be an FO. It is an improvement over the past!

3)We got great stuff for what we gave up (Grid penalties, pay raise with bonus, 1 to 3.75 credit, better scope and VEBA)
