just out of interest... in all the correspondence, e-mails, calls, etc, etc, has anyone mentioned FlyerTalk to Priceline or the hotel ?

Do you think words like 'fradulent' were used cos they know that some here used the changed URL to make the bookings after it was posted here ? Are they being so evasive cos they see it as a concerted campaign by "web based deal-searching geeks" (no, I don't think that, but they might from the outside !) to 'steal' off them ? Or are the utterly oblivious to the FT connection ? If it is the final point, how will it change things when they do find out ?!? For the worse I suspect !
