I say that they should be held onto indefinately, beyond Sept 8, and even seriously into next year. Gentlemen (and one or two ladies). Please remember that this was ROUND TWO, I do very very strongly believe that there will be a round three and that it could be bloodier for many of us than the previous two rounds. I believe that there should be a "ready reaction force" ready to pounce and battle and further changes which could come even a year or two in the future.
A little secret guys, this movement was probably the most successful in the industry and not only changed some things at Delta, but put us on the map. I challenge any of you if the chance arises to ask any of the top 50 or so executives at DL about SSM, while many did not follow it daily, you will find that all are familiar with it and that at least one very important report/study was written and circulated.
