My sister is 'retarded' & she is still a 'winner'. Choose your words carefully.

80, of course you're right. It's really not that big a deal, but I have to say the botched response to this has been the most entertaining thing on L&G since, well, underboob. A pity there aren't more substantive things to talk about. A simple "knock off the racy stuff, guys" would've sufficed, but you guys are all over the map, most likely because you're hashing this all out via PMs and emails versus sitting around a table and having a staff meeting.

But it's really quite simple. The standard is PG-13 (some nudity okay!), which the TOS clearly states (no nudity ever!), and ACL personally agrees with (no genitals can be seen - clothed or unclothed! - which would seem to make any full-bodied shot of anyone illegal) Everyone clear on that?

Doug Masters: Wow. I'll be sure to mention that to my aunt and my niece next time I see them compete.

DALLAS, Jan. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) announced today plans to operate one new daily nonstop flight between Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and Los Angeles International Airport beginning June 10, 2012. This will be in addition to the three daily flights operated by AirTran, Southwest's wholly-owned subsidiary. The carrier is pleased to add the long-haul route to its map—connecting two destinations popular for both leisure and business. Flights can be booked via the website or something.


So, 737s vs... a daily barrage of 757, 763, 777, A330, 763, 763, 757, 763 and finally a 757.

Well at least they try. better than our LAX-SEA efforts. We fly nothing while Alaska flies Delta 7679, 7671, 7668, 7708, 9045, 9030, 7676 which are on a 739, 734, 738, 734, 734, 738 and a 737.

Of course SWA can fly any route they want, more power to them, if they keep the prices the same as ours, more power to us both.

Disagree completely. If anything, they should bar him from changing it and make it his tagline.

ACL65,

Good question. No one saw anything "disrespectful" posted.

But, is it necessary to kiss the ring of Internet Brands, or Clee, to use this web site?

Internet Brands specifically finds sites like this one for take over, because it is a community of committed specialists. It is a smart strategy since your user group can be very specifically targeted for advertising and in our case, the average user's gross income is $150,000 or more. I can't think of a better web site to own.

With that ownership comes stewardship. At the very least the Admin should not sniper shoot users for criticizing a Mod (which no one saw Bar do). In fact, if users are complaining about a Mod the best solution is to correct that Mod. Especially if the Mod is new to the position and perhaps not got the time in the command seat to make good decisions.

Bar is right and he's not the only one offended by the Admin's actions (which speak for themselves). Users have been treated badly. The users are the VALUE of the site. The software can be leased for less than $100 a year. Users should receive the same respect the Admin demands.

As a Mod, can we ask you to take this over Clee's head? Who represents the users of this site? The Admin is quite literally destroying the value of this web site. Someone has to care about that rather significant investment.

Wasn't LGA-DFW mainline for years, was lost to RJ's, and now is going to be developed until it's profitable?

This is like the "free beer tomorrow" 100 seater we are still studying or waiting for.

My bet is once the route becomes "profitable" it will be kept as a DCI and be more profitable.
