Any one know what the vote turn out has been so far? Last I heard it was around 65%. Not to bad for a sapa event.

My guess is that due to the large amount of participation as compared to past votes, most are voting no. This should be interesting.

I don't even know if that is a put down or not. But in any case, they have done a really extraordinary job.

Its just too bad the pilots don't have the leverage to have them share just a little bit more of that $750 million they have in the bank.

It's not a put down but yet it could've been....

You're from Utah so I'm sure you know that Dixie College is a little college in St George. It's a common joke around here that Dixie's running SKW and their among the smartest business men and women in the nation but yet they've never been out of southern Utah. LOL!

I don't know anybody that's turning it down." I just don't get it...but I guess I don't get a lot of things.
