Thanks. That is consistent with what I've heard elsewhere.

It is: USC founded in 1801 vs Southern Cal in 1880

In 1980, Southern Cal won 23-13 and in 1983 THE USC won 38-14.

do you know something the rest of us don't? Did you talk to RA and ask him about it?

why would you feel the need to say that if you don't know for sure what he was talking about?

How about you answer your own question by quoting my entire post? :rolleyes:

Carl

and you'd still be wrong........................

So tell me the difference then as it relates to our contractual requirement to check our schedule. Are you saying that calling in via the VRU does meet the requirement for checking our schedules?

No that is spelled out. Viewed is different than checking, but viewing is considered checking. :eek:

Checking the VRU fulfills the contractual requirement as does viewing your schedule.

The whole point they are schematically different. The phrase on the DBMS Schedule screen states, "Pilot Last Viewed," not "Pilot Last Checked." The DBMS interface only shows views, where as the DBMS computer records all instances where a pilot checks his schedule via the approved methods; VRU, or one of the DBMS interfaces.

The DBMS screen is legally correct in only showing times that you view, not check. Told you the lawyers got involved. :D

I know who gives two hoots, but I figured since it was asked, I would spell it out.

or was it this????

Regardless = I can't admit I was wrong.

In the absence of an agreement by March 31, 2013, the parties agree to jointly petition the National Mediation Board for mediation services.

So is 3 months after the "amendable" date of our PWA the "end" of the normal section 6 process?? I guess only ACL can be wrong huh?

On the UT forums it is referred to as USCjr. I am sure they would take exception to that though :)

:p

and your screen name reminds me of a story. At the old Stapleton airport (DEN for you home gamers) A ground controller axed an American flight where he was going. The response was of course "The big D". Controller sez Well shut 'em down big boy, cause you've arrived.

I know.. everybody has prolly heard that, but I thought it appropo because of your screen name

Oh, and The UT.. the one (and only) in Knoxville.. has a Pantone color specifically named for the Big Orange... Tennessee Orange.
