Per the above quote, if Jeffy is saying, "we always said that it was a test for the calendar year." Well as far as any publicly released info that I have seen, that is pure ........ (a legitimate and widely recognized term meaning a lie, a dissemination).

I challenge anyone to show where Jeffy or any one else at Hyatt told anyone in any public manner that this was "a test".

Jeffy left everyone in the dark, with the validity dates ending at the end of the calendar year. I wonder if they got a kick out of all the speculation as to whether the program would continue or die.

As to this "we always said that it was a test" crap, that is an out-and-out lie. They never publicly said any such thing!
