Being a little cynical, I imagine management can carry that argument all the way up to the 747/777.
I hope we/DALPA have made it PERFECTLY clear there will be no more scope concessions!

Denny, I'm glad your are on tonight. I respect your opinions and take you at your word about not selling out. My point is that each individual will vote based on his own self interests. For someone to say they know how a large group of individuals will vote is presumptive at best. What I was saying was not that I know how individuals will vote, but where the group's self interests lie and predicting group behavior from that.
I hope you are right and people like you will prevail. Otherwise I will be out of a job as will a thousand others. I hope you can understand my passion on the subject as well as Bar's (although me may not want to be assosiated with the likes of me since he is far more eloquent).
