My Oct CR arrived yesterday. The ff article is unfortunately quite lame ie not up to the usual CR standards. It seems mostly the fault of the ff programs becoming unbelievely complex with qualifiers such as "only in the 48 states", "only in the 49 states", CO stating Hawaii fights to be international, different mileage requirements and opportunities for different elite levels etc. Most read like the IRS tax code and also have the unpublished (hidden) rules. Far to complex for a 1-3 page CR or anybody summary.
