For those wanting a good laugh...

I just sent polite faxes to AA and Hilton requesting status match for UA 1K and Marriott Platinum respectively. I did mention that I was not interested in doing a challenge of any type unless it was a reversible type proposition - i.e., extend me status for the challenge period. If I meet the requirements of the challenge, allow me to retain said status. If not, remove it. I don't think they are going to go for it, but I don't particularly want to give up my benefits on UA and w/ Marriott.
