Any recent luggage fee experiences on CO for WP Elites?

I have an upcoming flight on CO. I purchased the ticket on 1/17/09 and at that time on continental.com it stated something to the effect that SkyTeam elites got at least 1 bag checked free.

I just checked continental.com to see if it was 1 or 2 bags and now there is no mention of SkyTeam elites getting any bags checked free.

Not sure why I did this at the time I booked the ticket, but I did print the page that said SkyTeam elites get a free allowance. I've just got to find where I put it.

Anyway, do WP Elite customers get a checked bag for free or not? And if not, is the printed web page from continental.com worth anything other than an emergency piece of Charmin?
