I'm am sorry about my err, I was distracted at the time as I was brushing up on my Kremlinolgy for use in another thread.
However, I detest participants being picayunish. Bab's may feel you have kicked her in the pudendum, she is feeling puckerhood as it is. If I was in her shoes I may well be tempted to inveigh.
As an aside, why do you use the epithet you do Beckles?

Merry -- thanks for the explaination about those of us (like myself) who were considering trying to ASK for elite on antoher airline. I have a feeling like Beckles noted that some airlines "flag" those elite flyers who earned it and those who comped their way in.
And on An OMNI related suggestion: PLEASE DON"T FIGHT ANYMORE. I KNOW THAT SUGGESTION SOUNDS CHILDISH BUT LETS ALL TRY TO BE FRIENDS, OK? THANKS! CATMAN

So I've decided to stay elite with one airline, UA. It's easier that way. And UA's
been basically good to me.
NOW if I were flying to Europe a Lot I would want elite on British, which I'm so happy to learn does fly out of EWR! HURRAY! CATMAN

Beckles - though you may think me a catamaran, my cater-cousin Merry and I prefer to fight like Kilkenny cats, and to borrow one of his Latin phrases, you have provided us with a casus belli...
Don't be a juggins, though we may bicker and Merry is often at the budging Ken, he is certainly not a seven-sided animal... we may kangaroo you and say 'Snooks, what a kam dobby he is!'

Heck... and I thought my (rudimentary) knowledge of Latin was only so I can remember the motto of my college fraternity! (and that was many moons ago!) 
If you really want to know: "Causa Latet Vis Est Notissima." (The cause is hidden, the results are well known.)

glad to be providing an education/enlightenment, jamiel!
Anyone who really wants to know what I said can e-mail me asking for a translation...
As for you, hnechets... I shall let Merry Flyer deal with you. They say that life is so much sweeter when you know it will end soon...

Incognito for Catcopper, I am truly amazed that this has "anything" to do with instant elite status. Beckles can be "picayune" if he wants, because he, more than anyone here, lives in Picayune Parish. AlphaSigOU, the only Latin I see in your moniker is OU, and that was probably taught by Barry Switzer.
So, as the CatBobbie would say, get your mind out of the "loo" and come on down to the sewer "instantly" with us Elites.

hnechets: I am not offended. Yet.
How do you work out that Great Britain "lost" the American War of Independence? There we definite benefits to us letting you let set-up shop on your own.
The mouse that roared my friend. The mouse that roared!
