I was just trying to lighten the mood because it looked like after a coworkers death someone was gonna start spouting off about the efficacy of prayer which just leads to a religious debate, a denate that has no value or no end.

If anyone hasnt donated consider doing it now, money doesnt fix everything but it fixes a lot.

Bump for the above. I thought this is a great idea and did the same.

Anyone know if this was also a Delta employee? No airline mentioned in the article.

ATLANTA - Atlanta police say an employee at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport was killed this week in what appears to be a freak accident on the tarmac.

The operator of a bag loader vehicle was backing the machine up to the opening of an airplane on Wednesday. Police say as he did, the victim, operating as a spotter, became caught between the vehicle and the airplane.

Police said the victim was transported to Grady Hospital where he later died.

No charges are expected, police say.

Not a DL employee, UA or UA contractor. Getting a little crazy...
