While I agree with your last statement (at the least the first part of it anyhow), I think that your intial comments are little bit of a dive off the deep end. I've had my share (no pun intended) with the new UA over the last few months but taking one or two flight experiences and stating that they have "inexplicably and completely lost the ability to schedule flight crews properly" is an exaggeration. Stuff happens, as they say, and I think we've all been in situations where times were screwed up, etc. It doens't mean we have lost the ability to schedule ourselves. This is not a defensive of UA as I am relatively unhappy with them at the moment as well, but being unfair or unrealistic about our complaints and are opinions does no good either.
