When I visited the US CP desk in February, 2006, I was told that I had 802,000 lifetime earned miles. This was prior to the Shares cutover, and supposedly US no longer has the historical information of "all earned miles." I find that hard to believe, but there is a possibility that they can pull up the old information prior to the Shares cutover (March, 2007).

If NuAAdvantage does a one-time adjustment the way UA did, and the adjustment counts all earned miles until December, 2011, with my 57K+ AA lifetime miles I should just eek across the MM line. If they do the adjustment and only count all earned miles until March, 2007, I'll probably fall just short. It just seems to me that if they do no adjustments whatsoever they will really be shortchanging DM members -- some even to the tune of a full lifetime status level.
