Wayne, It is not like Continental, for example, has not gone that route before. Let's say that all the majors go belly-up and leave the business completely. Won't some smart firm buy up their planes and best routes for a song? Won't Amtrak upgrade? Of course they will. It would only be the end of the world for the shareholders and debt holders, who are supposedly aware that there is such a thing as risk capital.
