Anonymous movements never gain much traction; this appears to be no different. And the worst part is, SOME of their points have merit. But their methods destined them to failure.
The second part of your post 88 and what PG states, is where the reality lies. Some of the gripes have merit. The ones that have not pulled their cards feel ALPA cannot make these points their points, and those that have either not submitted cards, and or asked them to be pulled feel that ALPA is hearing them. They are getting the impression that ALPA sees the need for change, and is going in that direction. Add to this point, it is the worst time for a union drive and desertification, and all of these guy that have had a change of heart feel that way. It is better to build strength under ALPA that to fracture going in to this section six cycle.
