I just read on Yahoo that we pled guilty and have been fined $38M due to a cargo price-fixing scheme by Northwest from 2004-2006. I'll continue to do my part, but $38M adds up to a whole lot of apu use. One small (or not) example here - who knows how much else happens daily we never hear about -
That was irritating. Who was the CEO of NWA in 2004? The name is right on the tip of my tongue.
