Come on, PG. I don't disagree with you that DPA has come up short. But even you know it's not that black and white. You are illustrating the point Nu made pretty well.

No it is not. I have always said, that if the pilots of DPA become a Tea Party type of group, and unified that support, they could really get a lot of their gripes taken care of and quickly within the confines of alpa. If they made the effort and failed, then the majority position of the pilots was not that of this group.

You can prove anything with statistics... especially if you make them up.

Noticed all of the DPA pilots soliciting other pilots in the ATL crew room yesterday. Looked like T.C. was even there as well.

ALPA had a sizable presence there too.

I did not know another union could solicit members in any of our crew rooms. Did that change?

I passed through last night and saw the ALPA guys but no DPA folks. Anything interesting discussed by either group?

I passed through twice on Tuesday, once on Monday afternoon. Not much to talk about.
