After the change I would recommend taking your first drink in the middle of the club and promptly spitting it out on the floor or in one of those fake plants and yelling "SWILL!".

Somehow Delta responded to the (outsize?) outrage over "fake" Sky Club cheese—one of FTers' few victories in recent years, by my count. While I don't much care about the cheese, I'm pretty worked up about the prospect of cheap booze.
I no longer pay for membership as a DM, so I can't really vote with my wallet (apart from switching carriers, a step I'm not yet willing to take).
But maybe if we whine enough, Delta will reconsider?

It was more for sport, than expecting any real results.

And next thing you know the sanctimonious WRLBRL's bunch will show up with their free-lime bashing ways.
What were we even arguing about again? Barkeep, is my Gordon's and Tonic ready yet? I want to play the is it swill/gin/vodka guesing game.

At this point, it might be more effective to express concerns to local Sky Club management, especially if you're a regular with any sort of relationship with the staff. I plan to voice my displeasure at BOS.
