The pilots are throwing down the gauntlet. Somehow this would all have more meaning if the economy wasn't in such a crap state and fuel wasn't trading north of $110 a barrel. *yawn*
Exactly. I was laughing so hard, I had to settle down to write this.
Hey Pilots: If you don't like it, whaddya gonna do? Go on strike? Take your hats even farther off? Turn off channels 8 and 10, too? @:-):-:

Ahhh, that's good stuff. I'm not the smartest guy around, but I know a hollow, empty, meaningless non-threat when I see one - and that was one.
