You are reading something in that isn't there, Herb.

I didn't say I didn't like union employees.   But there was an  
animosity between PRC's union people and management or they would  
have not had some of the most vitriolic strikes in the industry in  
the 1950s.   They also had the second or third highest wages in the  
industry in the 1950s and still they would stay on strike for five or  
six weeks to avoid loosing that position.

I also have to recognize that even though I was in management, I got  
what I had because the state unions pushed up the salaries of  
management too.   So don't attempt to back me into any corners.
