You can take, what, 50%? away from that for people who don't commute? But, your point is well taken as far as PS is concerned.

The north policy, from what I understand, is seldom used. For example, I've used it only twice in the 6 to 7 years that it's been effect.

Bottom like, why can't someone (jumpseat committee?) at DALPA demonstrate that it's used too much and unsellable or that it's what most of us think.........a stress reliever that's seldom used.
