That is absolutely correct. I don't fly Delta very much these days, but even now, many Delta employees recognize my name and start conversations with me about SSM. And numerous reporters, incouding at least a couple at very prestigious newspapers, give SSM much of the credit for Delta rolling back many of the contemptible changes announced in December 2002.
I certainly have no objection to holding onto our remaining $1770 for a while longer. We may actually need it! But I am happy to follow the majority's lead here.
