DTW Roadshow
I'm not there, but I thought I would get the thread started. Now someone who was there, step up. What's the gouge?

A North guy stood up early on in the presentation and ranted about his DC contribution. He was put in his place and didn't have any follow up during the Q&A after he was rebutted. No one was really militant and the crowd was pretty relaxed. A few voiced their displeasure that the rates came in a little light but could otherwise live with the TA. The tone of the room was that the TA will easily pass and that it's something we can live with. The MEC made a fairly convincing argument for ratifying the agreement while at the same time admitting the pay scales did come in a little light. Overall you walk away from the presentation feeling like it's a deal we can live with and the risk/reward for voting it down just isn't there. This is just MHO so if you disagree that is fine.

Maybe DALPA understands why the Russians used "blocking troops."
If this TA passes, I am joining T in no-longer-apc-addicted-land.
