Not sure, but I think Jake's boss just signed the petition - here's an anonymous comment:

   Airline baggage carriers are largest group of lazy, unorganized workers in the world. They need to quit their complaining.

Yep...flying in now! 275 total today, over 80 in the past 2 hours alone...more than one every other minute.

Hopefully they'll keep flying in, and we'll get more press then assemble everything and start taking it directly to the powers that be at the airlines, starting with Delta. It's time they heard our collective voice and outrage over this and the general disregard and blatant mishandling of our equipment.
