But I do still want to carry an AMEX -- if nothing else, as a back up card. AMEX also has pretty darn good CS; and I may find myself buying gas or other stuff at Costco, which only accepts AMEX.

I'm doing the same thing. For gas, I've got to use it, even though it squeezes the stations. And, as a backup card, it's free, and I've got a huge credit limit (that hasn't been cut yet . . .).
