Justme: Thank you for demonstrating how truly asinine and self-serving the airline employee contingent is; you have yet to properly address the original post in this thread, and now your tactics have degenerated to inaccurate quips about side comments. Are you aware of what the term "en masse" denotes? Do you know the difference between a paramedic, a policeman, and a fireman? Your knowledge of statistics regarding firemen is obviously as weak as your knowledge of statistics regarding finance, the airline industry, and the auto industry. Why don't you do me a favor, and stop pissing on this thread while claiming it is raining simply to get the last post in . . . the only person you are hurting is you; it is because of the virtual guaranteed avoidance of people who think (and I use this term loosely) like you that I will gladly spend more money, and sacrifice much more of my time, when I choose to travel now. I've noticed that you are a "former airline employee", IMHO, you'd be perfect for the TSA - how about you put in an application - then you can exercise your apparent need to dominate and control those who fund your pathetic existence with absolute impunity. Oh, and yes, I am very mean spirited toward those who have no respect for the truth, and/or those who treat my effort, time and money as if it were theirs to do with as they please for that matter. Cheers!
