Thanks. That brings up another question.

Is a permanent fix even possible?

I have my doubts.

Just judging from the personnel trying to make the permanent fix, one would have to conclude, very doubtful.
Selig is a used car salesman type and has an agenda, Reinsdork and Hicks seem to have their own agenda.
I would find it easier to believe the owners if they would put a workable plan on the table, instead they huff and puff and lie about how much money they are losing.
The wild card, IMO is the bankers, are they willing to underwrite the risk of a WS cancelling strike?
Keeping in mind the tenuous state of the economy anyway and the exposure the big banks are already facing, and I would think a midnight deal will be reached.
