I just thought since we were quoting Albert Camus, I would point that out.

And the quote seems to apply!

We are closing in on 17 TRILLION dollars in debt, and President Obama seems not to be in the slightest concerned about it. Amazing.

Back on topic, does anyone know the final count of those who took the buyout?

All the best to an acquaintance known as Jeremy, where ever you ended up. Your wife was our family's dental hygienist. I had met you once. Good dude.

A couple went to US AIRWAYS..
About Four are going back to AA this month.
Heard three or four are in the UAL pool.
One is in the Alaska Pool.


Its all the young guys leaving to the airlines. Its a very smart move for them considering they will never have a career progression here anymore.


I would advise all to leave ASAP.....
