H.H.: Can you clarify your response for me. To what are you referring when you talk about the"*wood deal"? I'm fully aware of the 20,000 points converting into 25,000 miles but don't recognize what program is involved. Are you and gregorygrady still referring to Ameritrade? From what I can see, Ameritrade's site only deals with investing up to $50k for up to 25k miles with specific airlines. Am I missing something? Thanks
