Glad I'm traveling anytime soon...maybe the federal govenment workers should go on strike, too...they haven't had a raise since Jan 2009.

Oops...glad I'm NOT traveling soon...I got stuck in Detroit several years ago when Northwest (now Delta) workers went on strike.

Somehow I don't see how going on strike helps their cause or the economy anymore. Strikes have a huge ripple effect...if the pilots don't fly, the attendants and ground crews don't fly, meals aren't served so the catering companies lose business, baggage handlers don't work,...etc
