To find it (I couldn't) just search for "Base visit" and it's a couple of hits down on the list.

Bar,

Way back then, electronic transmissions did not suffice for legal signatures.....actually I think it was ZapMail that was one of Fred's few business miscues......The conspiracy theorists among us always thought he milked a ton of free publicity out of the Concorde deal with no real capital expenditure...Ymmv.

BG,

What I saw was a lot of agreements reached via fax with contingencies for signatures up to a month later. Business to business transactions went electronic nearly immediately. Execution of a payment, electronic or by other means, was binding as much as a signed contract was.

Our office manager surprised me with the amount we were spending on FedEx. In some cases it was more than the cost of the employee generating the paper.

As much as the internet hurt FedEx, it saved FedEx through e commerce and just in time inventories.

In our own business, we have tried to use FedEx and have experienced problems since the Kinko's tie in. The Kinko's folks are full of can't and won't. We tried to be loyal to FedEx but are nearly exclusively UPS since FedEx has such severe restrictions on shipping high value aircraft parts.

Break break...this just in. St Louis is an awesome layover. Glad to see only mainline jets on the ramp when we rolled in last night. I'm loving the marketing guys and the places we're starting to frequent! Have my first -900 trip in a couple of weeks.

Gym is awesome and the connected brewery is not bad. Great downtown location. Agree!

American gives up on Haneda ... plans to overfly. So much for the vaunted tie up with JAL. Glad we kept our Billion bucks.

American Airlines plans to discontinue to service from New York Kennedy to the close-in Tokyo Haneda International Airport on Dec. 1.

“While we are disappointed to end this route, our Tokyo/Haneda flight has been quite unprofitable, largely because we are allowed to operate only during severely restricted hours, limiting our customers’ options for connecting flights to and from other Asian markets,” American’s chief commercial officer Virasb Vahidi said in a special Jetwire to employees.

“Our decision to finally cancel the service followed multiple unsuccessful attempts to persuade the U.S. and Japanese governments to reach an agreement to eliminate all schedule constraints at Tokyo/Haneda,” he said.

UPDATE: AA chairman and CEO Tom Horton didn’t sound optimistic about the chances of American returning to Haneda anytime soon.

“If there were an opportunity to get better slot times at Haneda, we’d consider going back to it,” Horton said. “But right now, it was not a profitable flight and we couldn’t tolerate that any longer, and we fought that very hard.”

In addition, one of American’s JFK-London Heathrow flights will be turned over to Oneworld partner British Airways while AA finishes converting its Boeing 777-200 fleet to all lie-flat seats in its premium sections.

The news comes as part of a message to announce that American planned to launch service to Hong Kong and Shanghai.

Medical Premiums?
 

I'm doing my annual comparison with my wife's benefits to see if we should switch over to mine - I get the feeling her's is going to win again this year.

This is going to sound like a dumb question, but I'm not making much sense out of the medical premiums on Deltanet:

Are the premiums listed monthly or per paycheck?

For example, the Gold HRA for 2014 is $267. Is that per month or is it per paycheck? If so, holy smokes that's wicked expensive! Per month, and we may be close enough to make it worth diving into.

267 per month

go cards!!!!!
