I agree, but if it is my last year of 99% upgrades (for 6-months until things change 6/10/04) - stupidy came in my blood when I started flying CO 
so I gotta do it.</font>
That's exactly what I meant (the upgrade part, not the stupidity part). I'm exeriencing angst over the fact that I am currently about 1,000 miles short of requalifying as Plat for 2004, and while I have a west coast business trip scheduled for December 22 I am concerned that a northeast storm can blow out my trip and leave me short (I cannot - and actually will not, for personal reasons - do a mileage run to give myself the security blanket, but - as I stated in an ongoing post - I'm trying to figure out if I can hustle the 1,000 miles on the EWR-ABE bus trip for $175.00 without having to actually take the bus trip).
BTW, what have I missed, for I don't recall knowing anything about a change on June 10, 2004. Please fill me in.
