And the ALPA poll (or your opinion) means only this: "You old highly-experienced pilots move out and let me move up", and nothing else. But I would like each of you who feel that way to look one of us in the eye and promise that when you reach age 60 you will immediately resign!!! Each and every one of you who opposes the change now knows that the law will change a long time before you reach that age, but of course that will be fine as long as a few more hundred of us get off top of the seniority lists. Now look yourself in the mirror and tell yourself that the real reason is "safety". You all need to be ashamed of yourselves.
