Hmm? And that was just in the last two HOURS!
Awesome....just post multiple quotes from posters OTHER THAN "acl", and then try to link his "we do need better communication" comment to a bunch of ALPA bashing comments.

Wow, anyone seen my washing machine?

I think it was stolen because it has a great "SPIN" cycle.

acl, you're a pretty smart guy; naive, imo, but your heart is in the right place -- but you're WAY out of your league when you start talking about the DB. Let it go, it destroys your credibility in other areas.

Well thank you for your input. I do take input.

I will go further. You are correct, I am out of my league talking about the DB termination. It is not something that is worth my further study. What I do study and make my focus is an argument against ever having another one again. (How is that for unbiased honesty)

At least acl's "friend" made a run for it, and a good one. I respect that; he's trying to make a difference rather than just "bashing short sighted people that use...dues money in ways that aren't beneficial"

Swing and a miss! Did I say everyone that is running the show is short sighted and wasting my dues money? Find where I wrote that, or you can go on and continue placing words in my mouth.

I've said it many times in the past- DALPA does a lot of things extremely well. But does that remove any responsibility of screwups? Absolutely not.

Pineapple,

The people on this forum are at least thinking about this stuff, right? ALPA bashers or not, they are very informed, and that is great compared to the majority who know very little of what the issues are. I would guess that close to 100% have voted on our council elections. This forum could be the first step to the involvment you respect, so let's be nice. Ok? Turn your into a

We're in complete agreement on that, my friend. But weren't you one of the guys a few dozen pages ago recommending we look into possibly reinstating the DB just so the old guys would retire? If not, then I'm wrong on that. In any event, I think any type of reinstitution of a DB, regardless of who holds/manages it, is a bad idea. Glad we agree.

I'm in complete agreement. But then I didn't use terms like "unionoids" or "absolutely worthless tripe posted by a union shill"...

THAT'S what drew the out of me. Get rid of that BS, and turn this into an intelligent, rationale debate, and I'll be all 's

I said that if the group wanted it it is our responsibility to look at it. Not just tell people they are wrong. I am more than willing to look at others options even though they are not what I would want. That is me taking input, much like what you suggested above. I think you will find out, that I am the real deal, very pragmatic, but in the end I want the success for this group more than anything. Why? Because my wife and kids well being as well as each and every other pilots depend on us "winning" or restoring as much of this profession as we can. It is simple as that.

PG, I beleive that I (most of the time) do that. People can get frustrated, and that is totally acceptable.

My request is for certain antics from the opposing view also stop!
