Hard to believe for all his vision he can't outdo a lunatic that gets 1 out of 10 right.

He needs more full moons.

Ineresting stats from press release(USA Today):

"According to the analysis:

•Six Eastern airports that now have competition would be served exclusively by the combined airline: Wilmington and Fayetteville, N.C.; Florence, S.C.; Huntington, W.Va.; Lynchburg, Va.; and Augusta, Ga.

•In 25 Eastern and Southern airports, where neither carrier now provides more than 50% of the service, the combined carrier would become dominant by providing more than half of the capacity. Among them: Asheville and Greensboro, N.C., and Charleston, S.C., Mobile, Ala., and Richmond, Va."


And it was not that many years ago that US was the only carrier in some of those markets. (AVL, HTS, LYH, FAY)
