But i have been told it wasnt a case of the iranians taking it over i think it lost the signal and went down and probably had a hard landing. Any additional questions or comments . You have written your previous book about the b22 which was more incremental. There are very few opportunities to observe a revolution as it happens in the aero space and defense industy.

Our whole life has gone into this thanks a lot. applause i have two purposes of speaking, want to clarify the details of the halfprice medallion offer; the other is to implore the board to extend the offer to 300 rather than 150 applicants. Each medallion moves 1. 5 to 2 names; about 500 people can be brought into the fold if you allowed 300. Your workers are your greatest asset. Is consider forgoing the extra revenue you would get from sharing the other 150 medallions with these drivers and not forgo the goodwill of your workforce. Also these people that we have gotten into the fold have proved that they can dodge accident and deal with the public; the previous speakerjerry is a perfect example. He is Something Like 400 on the list. This is a career worker counting on this; it is not his fault. There are 1000 of us like myself who are either prop k and you will sell medallions for an extra 100,000 and make a total of 1

I can believe that you guys are going to try to ticket where with these drivers are work for; i worked as a driver seven years, it is one of the most disgusting jobs i have had in my whole entire life, being a cab driver in San Francisco. The Cab Companies treat you like crap. Not all Companies Offer uninsured motorist coverage. It my case, the guy said, we have Workers Compensation. Why should they be covered by Workers Compensation . Second of all, safety checks tha ....
