wow, is this place harsh or what?
I thought we were sharing or transferring miles, not bad words!
Anyway, I think the issue at hand is that if too many people were to discuss one or two of the "ways" people can facilitate the transfers, it may overload the system involving CO, Amtrak and UA and that would make them go ahead and stop or change the program for the worse. SO if you have a tip, share it but if it is really tricky, and believe me, I know the tricky ones in some of this miles stuff, then maybe the only way to do it is via PMs.
whatever. Just keep it clean, ok? I havent had coffee yet today!
