WHY????????????????????????????

well b/c if i'm going to a place I've already been, I believe/think I know what cat it is being rated/charged at and base my plans for using points on that.. then when i find out later that its a higher cat that I don't want to spend that much for.. I could be in a bind by having to go find another place that has a more reasonable value; on the contrary.. if it has gone down.. a place I may not have considered now comes into play as a possibility

and our Cat 1-5 certs.. it makes a huge difference if something switched cat from 5 to 6 or down to a five

is that enough?
