I don't know how recent that quote is, but I believe it was off of one of the weekly updates from Mr. B. On a side note, during the JFK-bid net-conferences, somebody on the call (mgmt) mentioned that when Delta approached Comair about picking up the extra flying, they were assured by Comair that we could pick up the additional hours with our current staffing levels.

Regardless of whether we are properly staffed or not (I don't think we ever have been properly staffed), our best chance for ANY recalls is if attrition picks up, and right now there seems to be minimal attrition, at best. Hopefully that changes as more and more people are introduced to commuting and the whole JFK experience.

This quote was directly from his email to me. I did not post the whole email, but thought that this paragraph was of interest to others that are hoping for a recall. I really do appreciate his openness and candid replies, even if they are not what we want to hear.
It does say a lot for a CEO/President to reply to emails from employees. I have worked at places in the past where you would never expect a reply, or maybe get a "canned" reply.

If some moron is going to put some doomsday apocalyptic bull shirt on you tube at least give the people enough respect to do a little research. the oldest human skeleton was found in east africa and is estimated through carbon dating to be over 200,000 years old. that's a little longer than 4000 B.C.

That assumes they would listen to science.

Exactly, living life in IMC and ignoring everything else is doing yourself a disservice. The earth is much older than 4-6k years old.

I agree. Was going with the being the last one left metaphor. I hear there is a creation museum in Hebron,KY that also says that humanity is only 6000 years old. How can you argue carbon dating?

What is the rumor about pass travel benefits? I heard J.B. talking about it on his audio message, but I haven't heard anything? is Daddy D considering restructuring the NRSA system?

There was a rumor that Comair employees would become S3C (like Freedump, ASA, etc). That was a while ago and it's still floating around out there, I guess.
