Lowerlobe,
You can go back years and get quotes and twist them whichever way you wish. And no stage did I advocate that by accepting Yes to the NY vote we would be getting our slips back. It would just keep us at least flying there. At the time you were advocating that we had to vote NO to get the NY slip back. Can you explain how this would have worked? The quote you posted was me asking you how by voting NO you were so sure we would be again slipping in NY.
And just for the record, I have only visited this a few times. Seems the odd occassion I look the likes of yourself have given QF crew a great reputation by getting them banned and it takes a lot of us ages to find where things have moved since then.
Anyhow, enough wasting my time with this. Got a life to get to. Will see you back in another year or two maybe.
