I suppose I should have expected this response from one such as you, amos, but it still saddens me that you feel you have to try to link 1989 with the demise of AN.
You are as aware as I that the decisions made by your peers at that time were of your choice, I and my colleagues played NO part in the debacle. I was ground staff, not Tech Crew nor a member of the AFAP, so please keep your sniping for the people who caused your problems, however you may perceive them. Remember, YOU made YOUR choices, I never wished the Company any harm nor brought it to the state it was in at the end. God in Heaven, man, - I presume I have the sex correct - my department was the only one making money for the Company up to, and after, the collapse.
Now, please re-insert your objectionable mouth back into the fundamental orifice from which it emerged, resort to your usual state of ignorant bliss, and stay out of my life.
