Southwest Airlines started out with three planes. They only really needed one, but Boeing offered three because they were trying to push 737's out the door at that moment in time. No one gave Southwest a chance, either.
BLTA!
Time for a "Teddy" reminder, too :
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
Excerpt from Theodore Roosevelt's "Man In The Arena" speech at the Sorbonne, Paris France 4-23-1910
I don't have "humble" opinions and never will!, so if you can't deal with that, just do us both a favour and put me on ignore!
