However, I will acquiesce to the wisdom of the Assistant Greenskeeper.

I try and stay away and then you drag me back in. 
This part makes me laugh. boths sides have been arguing the same thing for the last 30+ pages and really haven't budged at all. is it really a shocker that a list wasn't done without some outside help. both sides need to feel like you've been screwed but not prison type screwed. nwa shouldn't get all of their projected movement (not everyone will retire) and delta a relative ratio may be good right now but it won't be in the future for the nwa pilots. no one wants the others job they just don't want to loose out on everything they could have expected either.
757 dtw isn't my mini-me. My mini-me was called boon.

Taking a step back and looking at what happened with a little perspective. But first, I like Dave Stephens, I think his is a good guy with good intentions but he took what happened, I think, too much to heart and he got a little emotional. But from a macro viewpoint there is no way we were coming to a SLI agreement that quickly. DAL mec got contract improvements which do not even go into effect until January 09. I think we will have resolution by then and we will both be under the same contract.
I don't think the DAL guys went behind our backs and are positioning themselves to staple us etc. They did what they needed to do to get the merger process rolling. So, uh, instead of talking about burning down the house maybe we should relax a little and let the process take affect.

Sweet tea.
On that, when you run a restaurant and say that you have tea (sweet or not, but especially with the sweet), it should be made from:
-tea leaves
-water
-sugar
AND THATS IT!
Not some mystery powder, or some bulk container in the back being pumped to the soda dispenser rig, and passed off as real tea.
