Gee, thanks for the threat. You know, I wasn't laughing when I wrote 
"live with it". Maybe I was being arrogant and that can make more enemies 
than friends. Mea culpa. By the way, who is the "us" in the "you havn't 
heard the last of us"? Sounds kind of scary. And confrontational. It 
would be wise of you to remember that unions are a reality. They won't 
just go away. The best thing for you to do is to learn to live with the 
situation, try to understand what unionism is about, why it came to be 
and why it exists today. Threats won't lead to any kind of understanding.
cheers
