[Colorado-talk] To strike or not to strike?

[Alicia Richards]

Hello all. Chris, thank you for posting this, and for your summary of 
yesterday's meeting.   There was also a write-up in the City Desk section of 
today's Denver post, but it wasn't nearly as extensive as the one in the 
DDN.  If I can find the text of it, I'll post it here.

I, too, was at the meeting, and Chris is right, the double talk was 
unbelievable.  I was proud that so many Federationists were there yesterday, 
and it was positively awesome to see the shock of RTD, ATU, and the 
state-appointed commissioners at the number of people that turned out for 
this hearing.  They didn't have a P.A system, as they were not expecting us, 
and as Chris said, they had to add more chairs.  Even though it seems to be 
a foregone conclusion that ATU will be given the right to strike, perhaps we 
made a statement by our presence yesterday.
