Semantics, CB. Should have read simply standards, but the point still stands. Nice to see that an argument based on semantics is all you'll ever have though. Perhaps you'll start on my spelling and grammar next? Oh wait... we all remember what happened last time you tried that.

I see now that you try to apportion blame. Yes, C-scale does have its share in blame for bringing down the training standards. Where do you suppose that management got the idea to begin with? What proved to them they could get away with lowering the T&C's as well as the entry requirements? I'll give you a hint, the answer lies in your ABC's...
