In this interview of Mr. Anderson just prior to our corporate closure on the NWA merger he makes a number of prognostications which have been correct, including short on fuel prices & commodities, long on New York airports and still considering what to do with Mesaba, Comair and Compass. What made his observations interesting is his support for foreign ownership of US carriers. Mr. Anderson points out that foreign entities, such as Airbus and Bombardier are already huge invested money players in US carriers. His other eye raising comment is that he is "short ... on unions." He mentioned US labor's efforts to fight cabotage are wasted since European carriers are mostly unionized also.

Hmmm.

RAs long term goal is to be Director of Gruppo Skyteam International, S.A., LTD. We're halfway down the road already. That happens... and we're toast. Bid for equipment and routes, just like the regionals. Our lack of a cohesive bargaining strategy is meeting the endgame.

Douglas may have had it's problems but as Homer Simpson said of his son Bart: "I don't want my name on that train wreck..."

I know you were google searching "Hot Dogs" and came up with that ...

If the NSA has a file on 80KTS "Goat Porn" searches, you know they've just got to be keeping an eye on you too.

PS...Columbia got me. Now I've got a file too after I searched "Ron Jeremy, funny" ... mein gott, wish I had never hit "enter" on that search .... is it possible to unsee something? Someone call these guys.

Thank you ... that helps me get over that Ron Jeremy search. Guess I understand now why I'm a pilot and not a porn star.
