Now you're getting into "Status and Category" which is apparently tough for our feeble minds to understand. But here goes my college try.... In order:
Group 1) Anything not brewed in Texas
Group 2) Anything brewed in Texas
I think I nailed it!
Hold on a minute now. What if something in Group 2 has been sitting on the shelf longer than Group 1? That's not fair. Shouldn't it be drank first and rewarded for time spent on it's on shelf......The debate continues![]()

You're argument would be valid for all beers other than those brewed in the loner star state. But then again, they would already be in group one so never mind.

It should also be noted that the arbitrator will erect enormous fences around the entire state so now everyone wins!
Why would you reward some skunk beer? Age doesn't count at this level... gotta move to the majors, like j.walker.
I prefer Macallan 18... for celebrations that is... Walker Black/Green/Gold will do or Glenlivet 15 for an everyday bevie.
I'm not painting you as junior. Let me get this straight, with this new information you have a 92 hire, a 93 hire, a 97 hire, your 98 and 99 hires go down to 17ish on your list right? 17 out of 600 is what? 2%? same # down our list is an 88 hire, next guy down is an 88 hire. Next guy on your list is an 02 hire? IF your intent is to paint yourself as a senior good luck, to my knowledge everyone has the lists and I think everyone can do addition and subtraction.
We are not a we yet. Combine three airlines together and yes we are a junior group. I am simply exposing Smitty's little red herring about current facts. Trying to distract us with a single 92 hire as somehow negating Walters point is weak and transparent. HOLDING onto that little factoid (which still puts that 92 hire about 10% down our list) and pretending it's relevant is a bizarre way to convince anyone. I'd say it's more "preaching to the choir" than anything else.
The fact remains the top 550 guys here have a median seniority of 11 years. Even from that chart it's easy to see the first Colgan guy doesn't even come into the picture until the 19 years block. You don't even start talking about any real block of pilots until the 8 year tier (about 20 down). That slide show information is from the roadshow about 3-4 months ago right?

Arbitrator Bloch has informed us that his decision on the combined seniority list is complete but he wishes to give it a final review over the weekend. Please stay tuned for more information.
Let the fun continue for a few more days....This was just posted on Colgan's Facebook page
