Still has to come down to a vote by the membership right? Whatever the solution, global or not, is that the NC/MEC proposes to US.

Block 8 629 members
Block 1 573

My point, block 1 is outnumbered if our concern is that they are going to throw us under the bus. I am in no way proposing dissention between the blocks by the way...

But, will 51% of the membership continue to take the heat?

Company is waiting for us to reach the breaking point, even though the polls show strong support throughout our membership right now...they are waiting, so far so good though lotta guys are hurting from the financial hit.

Company is gut checking us in alot of ways here. NC will be neutered if we fold. Sooner or later the company is going to have to negotiate instead of dictate if we hang together. But, right now they aren't listening at all to our guys, waiting for us to self destruct. Where the hell is Yoda...

BTW Mark and the rest of the silent majority out there. From us guys on the bottom of the list, thanks.
