[SML] Boston Mayor's aides convicted of demanding music festival hire union stagehands.

[Dale Farmer]

No, it's not your fault.   I was bringing up a case where city officials 
were convicted of extortion.  The specific act was directly beneficial 
to a major union in our field.  I thought this would be useful to the 
people on the list.  But I find myself being accused of being anti 
union, rather than a discussion of how this might affect the union and 
the workers who are and are not members.

I'm done with this.
