The funny part is when I was an ER FO, the DZers who yelled the most about getting hosed, also on the same trip showed you pictures of their 2nd house on a lake, beach or mountain, their boat, and their plane.

And were horrified when I told them I drive a 20 year old pickup and my wifes car is 10 years old, and we lived in a 1400 square foot house. (welcome to the reality of being a "lost decade" guy) and we were trying to build up a retirement and pay off some medical bills.

People got hosed in banruptcy. Some guys did better than others with PBGC, Note and Claim, and the merger. I wasn't here for any of that.

I suspect the guys who got really, really hosed, have been gone since before I was hired.
