John, John, John,
	If your knee jerked any harder it would be imbedded in your chest.
Slow down.  Think for a second.  Were the union's demands really so
unreasonable?  In the long run I believe that all the students at this
university benefitted from the strike.  It is unfortunate that all we
got on class size was a committee to look into the problem.  It should
be pointed out, though, that before the TAs went on strike, nobody has
ever taken a strong stand on this issue.  Are we so evil because we
want to ensure that you get the best quality education possible?  The
strike was very short.  It forced the administration to negotiate.
Perhaps one or two of your arguments might have the faintest ring
of plausibility if the strike had lasted through the exam period, but
in fact, it did not.
	On a personal note, though.  John, are you just anti-union, or are
you opposed to quality education?  It isn't clear from your postings.

Kevin Dooley, CUEW local 2 steward for Physics and Astronomy
