Because anytime I have run into anyone from DALPA of any importance their mantra has been : "If DPA succeeds at DAL they are going to go to court and overturn the Seniority List as USAir did and attempt to get d.o.h."

So far the only public name and face of DPA is a relatively junior 'former North' FO who was quite disgruntled with his # prior to checking out of mainstream comm. This plays right into the hands of DALPA's counteroffensive of course.

If he gets a mix of South and North, Junior and Senior, to go public with him so he is not the only one signing all the letters and Comm. that may allay some of the South fears and make things a lot sportier. Until that time sending in a card for more info, or to put pressure on ALPA is one thing, but voting in DPA would be a whole different story imo.
