Genex, nicely stated.
...however
I bear no grudge even for the scores and scores and scores of current AIPA members who crossed picket lines in '89 and did the industry such damage.
Those to whom Genex refers currently represent at most about 4% of the AIPA membership. Perhaps you'd be surprised to learn that many did not and subsequently have not joined AIPA, probably for the same reason that they returned to their previous employers after that dispute.
Best wishes Genex. Despite the fact that you often annoyed me with your posts, you never failed to encourage some discussion.
