crank: appreciate your comment. But wouldn't you agree that it is still important for the long-term viability of the company to have revenue (paid by PAX) to exceed expenses (salaries of pilots, FA's, machinists, reservationists, ramp workers; fuel; debt, etc). This would seem to be the case, even if the employees respected and supported the CEO.

It's true. You were quite correct!

This is good news indeed! Koko's prayers have been answered! Now lets hope the new fellow on the block gets things back on the right track.

A little OMNI here but since I knew everyone at the STIFFS dinner last night, I now get to guess who snake is. Hmmmm, anyone want to guess?
And yes, you are right, Koko was the major partier last night. There wasn't a Koko sighting this morning.

The last thing United needs now is neutron Jack. Let's just hope the caretaker can get revenue and expense matched up.
btw....do you think it's too early to send him an e-mail about United Connection???????????????????????

You were right, beaubo. Good reporting! Thank you.
(Weyerhauser. didn't they make Irons? So uniforms will be well-pressed? and he was on the BOD overseeing Goodwin... hopefully one of the doubters)
