Does it matter at all to you that I've never said I despise Moak? I don't know him, and we've never met. I judge him on his actions and written statements.

ALPA national funds all activities of its local unions.

You're right. This is the same template ALPA national has used for some time now. Lee is just the latest leader to use the template. My hope is that we Delta pilots realize that no matter how much net profit our company makes, our own union thinks 3% is an outstanding achievement (Lee's words).

Yeah.. I am not interested in getting into a furball with you today. Buuuuut... you have never said it in so many words, but I don't believe that you have anything other than contempt for LM. That's the last I will say on that, and if you rebuff it.. I'll let it go, but I know what I read (albeit between the lines). And... I agree with you concerning the template. I am anxiously awaiting LM to change the modus operendii coming from Herndon.. but I think I will be disappointed.. (Cue ACL,PG and alfa) Oh, that's right, since I want that changed, I need to get out from behind the keyboard and get involved...

ts and Carl,

Have you two forgotten that you made up a long time ago because you had a "common enemy?" Come on boys. Stop fighting each other and join forces again! Election season is right around the corner.

Speaking of calling your reps... I just sent THIS to my reps last night as input. I don't agree with every single statement in this paper. But overall, I think it is a good summary of what we are facing, the perspective we need to have, and how we need to proceed. Looking forward to hearing back from my reps.

Gentlemen,

I've been flying through Atlanta a lot lately and it drains every bit of energy out of me. I think walking on water would be easier than getting an on time departure when flying a DC-9 through there.

I didn't think I was fighting with Herr Greenskeepersan. I was just pointing out that he seems to slam LM a lot, and I don't think it's necessary.

My friend New,

I think I can speak for the other APC dorks, it is understood that you can walk on water. Good seeing you the other day.

NERD,

My good friend, as one of the few people on here who has known me for a long time, you know I CAN'T walk on water. Good seeing you, too.


Off to be humbled by the ATL (again).....
