You beat me to it, EWL, but I'd like to ask Spad - If you ever found yourself in the overly-dramatic position you painted, are you claiming that you would, in spite of the obvious antipathy toward perceived "scabs", consider asking one to help? Could it be that a "scab" would be unacceptable in terms of dire assistance and, if so, then what does that say about your system of priorities? Alternatively, would you offer to help a "scab" in the same position, or would your "principles" choke you to the point of being unable to offer assistance?
Kind regards,
TheNightOwl.
