Iceman. Good post. However, trying to explain the obvious to the illiterate, juvenile and obnoxious lot that populate many of the right seats in this airline is a thankless and pointless task. CX decided to 'dumb down' the airline many moons ago...and have succeeded magnificently. I sometimes am left in awed amazement at the sheer level of dysfunction inherent in many of my colleagues. Couldn't care less what they think...as I have found most of them are incapable of any reasoned thought anyway....
ps. think we should get some '65' tie pins manufactured...
