Like Bob, I have dealt personally with some of the senior managers at US. They are concerned about what we think, and I believe they are coming to listen to us. I think that the conversation should stress their strengths as well as their weaknesses. I always lavish praise on the deserving employees and stress why I stay so loyal before discussing any negatives.
I have been in touch with members of the press, some of whom are trying to attend-there is MUCH interest.
I believe I will be making a statement--I am driving to PHL from Long Island, as the fare quoted was over $700. I have room for a couple of folks from NY if interested (stockman see PM).
Also I went to a different PC to pay with Paypal and it went through
My hat's off to Bob and Ira--I look forward to seeing you all.
