Before Larry tries to get me on a grammar point, I do notice my thus/such mistake in this post. I rearranged some stuff and left the wrong word in. Oops. All in fun :) (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) You seem to be mixing privatization with monopolization. I agree that it is still a monopoly, and as thus it still has special problems and considerations that need to be dealt with but are usually ignored. However, this does definitely meet (...)

(...) Eventually you will get where you are going. But you will have to wait until there is a flight that has seats available and all the "more senior" standbys have went. Theoretically, with perfect yield management, there never would be seats (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) Define "within the thread of another", please. Threads are not owned. Therefore, yes to both questions.

(...) I'm sorry. You weren't listening when I said that any so called "privatization failure" can be explained by analysing and demonstrating why it wasn't really privatization. You proved my point.

(...) I never fly on standby unless it's leisure and I don't care when I get there. But I usually do care, so I never fly on standby. If you don't get on, you get NO compensation.
