AS someone already posted - if our management starts to takes this crap too seriously we are doomed to follow the above mentioned airlines.

I always said its better to be number two fighting for number one then be number one reveling in your position. No one has ever stayed on top forever. Not Rome, not the British empire, not Pan Am, TWA, UAL, AMR or someday DAL or SWA for that matter. Someone always comes along hungrier, more innovative with a better product, etc.
