Ignore the smoke signals at your own (and our own) peril..

Lew, I appreciate the info you have been putting out on RLA and your push for a world wide top airline contract. You keep saying there are signals and signs and info coming out that we are probably going to be disappointed because SWAPA is probably going to stoop short of the best we can get. Can you be more specific about these signs and signals for us that weren’t around for the last contract negotiations?
