You remember Dougie Parker..don't you, Ed?

He was one of the only CEO's to take the $250M from the govt for America West after 9/11? He then used it to buy USAir when they went CH11, tried a hostile takeover of Delta, and finally settled on AMR.

Dont put Delta in that situation again over stock options and buy-backs.

Take the money, Ed.
