A little bit. :D

Yelling and screaming just to yell and scream waters down when it is actually time to yell and scream.

Only reason harwood looks smart is because nobody showed up with any comparative statistics from a different view point. Einstein a genius, yup, .....harwood...definately not...just a man with statistics to support one point of view. Statistics only matter in which the context they are applied. Time value of money does not take a genius to prove. Prove the relevance of time value of money as compare to how many green slips that can happen due to a pilot shortage and an fantastic PS pay check.

No, it's your move deuce. I haven't done as you allege and my posts reflect that. Prove your argument. I'll stand by my words. Will you?

Way to throw grenades with nothing to back it up.... That's a non-starter even amongst the moderate reps. This is all pablum tossed out by a known fear monger. Just stop with the rumor nonsense.

The first proposals in section 1 were exchanged on 20 May. We have not even given the company a reply yet. Perhaps the rumors are about rumors on what might be in our rumored reply based on rumors of what might have been in managements opener!

How do you know what happened in the negotiations on May 20th?
I didn't see that in the update.

Apparently leaks are OK coming from one side but costly and destructive coming from the other side.

Well, why isn't the "Other Side" telling us their story?

NOBODY is refuting that the NC has already capitulated.

The last update read like they re-tweaked a couple items and then the TA is a done deal.

Fwiw, I expect it to be concessionary in the rumored areas. There's a little truth in everything.

Despite my disagreement with this approach, I'm a NO until I find the value to be a yes.

Here comes more 76 seat jets and possibly unlimited 70 seat jets.

And the sales job? We are parking all the 50 seaters!

I guess I'm just old school and I don't get it.

Why would we give up mainline flying during record profits?
