If I remember correctly, it was in the latter part of 96 or early 97. And then, I think they restarted/revised/reintroduced the Marriott Rewards program around 2000. Got a different card, I know; don't recall if the number was different.

As to the "Marquis" term, I still see it on some of my hotel receipts. Gives me a warm feeling of continuity, as a matter of fact.
