Would you like some cheese with that whine?

I don't drink, thanks.

My post wasn't meant for pilots to snipe at controllers. It was meant for
enlightenment concerning an incident where the controller declined to
provide priority when asked, and an accident followed.

I'll ask again- In your controller training, are situations addressed
concerning aircraft which request priority but do not declare an emergency?
