The case? That is what lawyers are best at inventing when there is a ground swell of desire to search for one.

ALPA is gonna have to review all possible options blah, blah, blah.. ALPA is gonna have to ki$$ a$$ if they want to keep their dues members. Read the AAA MEC announcement. It might not change anything, but they have got to do a real good job faking it like it is real. :huh:
