strobes on

It would be a giant mistake and massive hubris for AnsettMk3 to underestimate the very negative feelings of a majority of their former clients, staff and the public at large, that will come with the name.. .That's why if there were really a case for a profitable third carrier, FLEW, or any of the wannabes in the queue, would have been better off starting from scratch and then as a side issue bid for those Ansett assets that they needed. . .Dead is dead.. .You don't see the US Govt lining up to "save" KMart.. .The smell of free money in the air always brings together some strange and unlikely bedfellows, Kelty/FLEW and Crean calling in some chips with the union in a cynical pre election political stunt. The Budgie wont be far away. Of course they are all there only to help the ex AN staff.

NICEONE. .It doesn't matter, the point(s) <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0"> has(-s+ve) already been well and truly made.
